matthieu@ pointed out how to use the alt key in console emacs.

Just thinking… a suitable work-around for such OSes would be to set the
following in ~/.ssh/config:
Host my.old.host

As stuart said, pccon is the best
On my X1 Carbon running openbsd 6.6, the console works fine with the
non-X version of emacs except that the meta key is not set. One can
emulate the meta key by typing escape followed by x, but this is a
pain. Maybe there is some mechanism for setting the alt key to meta
in emacs on consoles, but

pccon is the termcap(5)
Stuart,
Apologies for breaking netiquette w/ sending images.
Could you please point me to what "pccon" is? I found references to
pccon in pcvt - but it is unclear to me how I can use pcvt either.
Thank you!

OpenBSD does not do non-X versions of ported software so even if you
dont use X as such it still needs to be in the base install.
HTH
(I've had my backside reamed over this more than once!)
It is impossible to use Emacs on OpenBSD Terminal (no X).
Look at this screenshots:
On Linux / macOs -- this same version of Emacs and org-mode would
display this file with colors etc.
OpenBSD can't even show the mode line.
How do I fix this?
