Is Xemacs available with Windows Style Key Bindings ? Emacs has these Windows key bindings

The keybindings of Emacs predate modern GUIs, and the keys that were chosen by later GUIs for cut and copy were given important functions as extended keymaps in Emacs. CUA mode attempts to let both bindings co-exist by defining C-x and C-c as kill-region and copy-region-as-kill when the region is active, and letting them have their normal Emacs bindings when the region is not active. Many people find this to be an acceptable compromise. CUA mode also defines a number of other keys (C-v, Shift selection), and can be turned on from the Options menu

A: 

If you could put up with emacs instead of Xemacs there is EmacsW32 it's plain emacs modified to integrate better with windows. It has a lot of features including a choice between emacs/win keybindings.

From webpage:

EmacsW32 is a collection of Emacs lisp modules and MS Windows programs you can use from Emacs. It can make the keyboard and other things in Emacs function more like they do usually in MS Windows programs.

EmacsW32 is not Emacs for MS Windows. Instead it is an add-on to Emacs for MS Windows. You can however download Emacs+EmacsW32 in one installer.
