  13. ``startup.el'' explicitly does not load terminal-dependent code
  14. (i.e., ``term/'' stuff) if you are running a window system.  This is
  15. seems wrong, as terminal-based customization is entirely about
  16. keyboards (well, pretty much), and window-system-based customization
  17. is (almost) entirely unrelated to keyboards.
  18.  
  19. My suggestion is to separate displays from keyboards better.  Seems
  20. to me things would work right if both were loaded, but maybe there
  21. are some interactions I don't understand.
