Hi.
In many terminal applications there are hot-keys corresponding to some actions. Many of them start with Meta. Midnight Commander use M-? for searching, Emacs use M-> for moving cursor to the end of file... However on my Gentoo I must press also Shift to let it work. It seems like stupid problem, but I'm accustomed to use Alt-Shift for keyboard layout switching (Windows habit) and X (or Gnome, I really don't know) dispatch this action before keys are released so 'Alt-Shift-?' is considered like 'Alt-Shift' and then '?'.
Thx
