Cool.

Bind and unbind naturally don't need to be there. Help needs to come
from keylaunch. It would be nice if it could provid it. The best
solution would be for the keylaunch rc to be more readable, so you
could do something like:

C-S-?   xterm -e less ~/.keylauncrc

and it would display something that looks like the current help screen
in a manageable window.
