whatever feels the most natural for the specific case.
## Are you familiar with <http://emacs-versor.sourceforge.net> ? And other earlier implementations. A short comparison would be nice.
-Not familiar with this, but it looks very interesting.

+Not familiar with this, but it looks very interesting. From a quick look, I can say that versors is partially related to rigpa, in that its "cursors" roughly correspond to noun modes. Rigpa isn't limited to noun modes, though. For instance Vim's normal mode contains many nouns and a special command language. On the other hand, Emacs's usual editing behavior doesn't think in terms of nouns at all and has a myriad of ad hoc keybindings. Yet, both are rigpa modes, along with modes like window-mode and buffer-mode which each correspond to individual nouns (like versor). Rigpa is less about the nature of the modes (about which it is relatively unopinionated, although noun-specific modes may be a common choice) than it is about the relationship between modes, the ability to structure them and interrelate them and configure them on the fly.
## What package is used?
- Probably Symex mode! → <https://github.com/countvajhula/symex.el>.
