Dear Allen Martin,
Check for scancodes for arrow keys and map them to ^F/^B, ^N/^P.

Let's either do it properly or not at all ... if I let you do these semi- complete fixes, we'll end up with a stinking pile of crap like windows ...
I'm definately on board with changing it over to use input, it seems like the right thing to do. I just wasn't signing up to do the work right now. I'm happy to help review patches though if someone else wants to jump in.
