Keys and commands

Everything here is also on ? (:help) inside the app, which draws the same lists. Keys act on whatever has focus: the row under the cursor in the list, or the document in the focused tile. Inside the editor the full vim keymap is live, and : opens the command line, where Tab completes commands and their arguments and ↑ / ↓ recall earlier lines.
