You are not likely to find one closer than BOXER.  The only keys I recall 
working differently were ones I had changed myself in QEDIT, although a few 
more extoric keys may do different things, as BOXER has even more features 
than Qedit.  Both macro languages make it a rather simple task to change the 
keys to whatever suits your fancy.  Even TSEPro, QEDIT's big brother has some 
keys that are different, but can easily be changed to whatever you like.  The 
important issue is most keys are the same, and they can be changed to about 
anything you want.
