If you like, I have a GNU emacs configuration which goes quite a ways
to defining the wordstar keyset under emacs.  There are differences in
block commands and line-killing because I was lazy, but it works well
enough.

Email if you would like it.

[Note:  yes, it's a gawdawful thing to configure emacs like that but
as a heavy user of both keysets, lemme tell you the wordstar one is
much better if you touchtype or if meta is not supported on your
terminal.]
