The one regret I have about sam is that it doesn't do scroll-select. I
write papers rather than programs, and often want to select and
quickly move around large chunks of text whose boundaries are usually
not marked syntactically, even though I use LaTeX.

On the other hand, I find sam a more quiet experience than acme. In
acme it helps to let windows take over the whole column (B3) often.

Mark.
