There seem to be several holes in the implementation of Hemlock movement commands.

1. Shift+movement does not select as Mac users expect.

2. Other move+select commands appear not to work (e.g. Forward Select Character)

3. Several movement commands (e.g. Forward Form, Forward List) don't work in the Listener

I'll adopt this one and see if I can get most of the common movement/selection commands working as expected; the work overlaps with what I was doing on selections and listener-copying anyway.

All that I can tell is that it's trying to write a warning to the echo area to the effect that it doesn't understand the "Syntax:" file option; I'm not sure that the echo area even exists at this point. (It's dying in the method #/readFromURL:ofType:error: on hemlock-editor-document; this code is running on the event thread, and whatever its notion of "the echo area" is, it probably isn't correct.)

If it's going to try to parse the attribute line and if it's going to do someting other than silently ignore attributes that it doesn't understand, it should probably do that parsing a little later (and, in the current model, it should do that on the right thread.)

Correction: It's (apparently) not CFFI. The problem seems to be trying to open a file containing the following modeline:

;;; -*- Mode: LISP; Syntax: ANSI-Common-Lisp; Package: CL-USER; -*-

Trying to open a file with this modeline dumps a whole bunch of error messages to the console and results in a broken Lisp.

Please not. It should be possible to use a smoothed Monaco. As much as I like Monaco, please without pixels. For the hardcore pixel-Monaco fans there might be a switch, but the default should be the smoothed version.

Help!!!
