/bin/ksh93 -l is a login shell, this is not mentioned in the man page.

The alias __letter mechanism (emacs mode), which was used in ksh88, is 
described in the ksh93 man page. However I did not succeed in using it. Using 
${.sh.edchar} and a KEYBD trap is a perfect workaround, so this does not need 
to be fixed, but it should be removed from the man page.

       M-[letter Soft-key  - Your alias list is searched for an alias by the 
name __letter and if
                 an alias of this name is defined, its value will be inserted 
on the input queue.
                 This can be used to program function keys on many terminals.

(The alias _letter mechanism works as described.)
