yes I did issue the commands with my latex file, and the output show
no mappings.
I am hoping that in an itemize environment, when I type alt-i in the
environment, it will automatically insert a \item
\begin
{itemize}
\item (\item is inserted as the result of alt-
i)
\end{itemize}

I know this a workaround but I would like to pass alt-i to vim in
mlterm. what I am doing now is that I am switching to some tasks to
xterm. but the support for multibyte characters of xterm is feeble.

this is confusing me because if I type alt-i in under mlterm with my
latex file, it will be a small-e-acute.
but if I use xterm, it will insert a correct \item. So this makes me
feel that the problem is with mlterm. It seems like an off topic issue
now...
Thank you for your help.
