Sorry man, no time to play lately.  Sounds nifty, though.  The more
you work and code and polish, the easier it'll be for people following
in your path.  Maybe eventually you'll be able to say, "Oh, you prefer
Vim?  Me too.  Download Emacs, run this convert-emacs-to-vim.el Elisp
program, and you have all the features of both."

In the mean time, keep working on what you like.  Work on Emacs.
Write an "Emacs/Viper for Vim users" help file, or expand/update an
existing one.

I've decided on a parallel track (when I have time, which isn't
often): work on making Vim+ECL more robust.  I think a big problem
with your slim-vim work was the lack of fully-debugged Vim / ECL
integration.  If you'd had that, you'd've had a much easier time of
it.
