I've run into a lot of trouble implementing the vim bindings because morph
instances don't make local copies of the class's maps, so there's no way to
override class defaults in an instance. For example, for a particular
instance, I can't detach a category that is attached to the class without
detaching it from all instances, which I think will not work anyway because
existing instances don't pick up those changes.

Coming alive again.� In a previous email I told you about three mechanisms to configure shortcuts:

- static shortcuts (per class)
- dynamic category shortcuts ( you build a category and attach it to an instance)
- single shortcuts per instance

The thing is that you can mix the three above, having the three working together.� The lookup mechanism in a morph is:

- first single shortcuts
- second dynamic category shortcuts
- finally static shortcuts

So, you can put a base static configuration and override stuff with dynamic shortcuts.� But to be sincere, I've never tried a complex configuration like that :)

Is that useful for you?
