Has anyone ever tried to use sidekick with the terminal program
vterm?  Vterm has a function called a 'hotkey' which lets you 
escape to dos by pressing both shift keys at the same time.
Unfortunately, sidekick uses the shift-shift technique to  invoke
it or to escape from it. 
Because of this problem, the two will not work together properly.
I have tried to patch sidekick so that it does not respond to shift-
shift, and only uses the alt-ctrl instead; but alas, no luck.
Anybody ever try to disable this? (or if impossible, change vterms
hot-key?)

	Thanks,
