Re: remapping M$ windows key to act as meta under console emacs (like X)
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- I had this set once before, but not in a while to be sure now.. I think you need to hack the console keymap to bind 'M$' to ALT. But there's a little thing on console about ALT--META mapping. I don't believe emacs will recognise META and ALT seperately on the console. Could be wrong by now, though. #include rants/console_mappings.text On Mon, 15 May 2000, Britton wrote: I notice that under X, emacs now uses the little window key as a meta, while doing something totally other with Alt. This is fine, but I like to use emacs from the console, and there Alt is still needed. I don't think it's a good idea to have emacs requiring different keystrokes depending on where is is run. Anyone know the best way to make things consistent? Should this perhaps be changed in the package?

Should this perhaps be changed in the package? You have to change key keymaps with the `loadkeys' for the console or with `xmodmap' for X. I've created a console keymap for use with XEmacs that you might like to try. Look in: URL:http://master.debian.org/~karlheg/XE-Lisp ... for xhypermap.m4 and ext-fkeymap.el. If you don't like how I've got the change vt keys mapped, then you can modify the .m4 file to suit yourself. I based it on the hypermap.m4 that's part of `console-tools'. -- Those who do not study Lisp are doomed to reimplement it - Poorly. A few months in the laboratory often saves several hours at the library. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Karl M. Hegbloom)
