I would like to map Alt+char to certain functions in GVIM. I'm using
GVIM 7.2 on Solaris machine, using dtterm (or xterm) for my terminal.

For example, I would like to use Alt+j and Alt+k to move left and
right across tabs. So I have this in my .vimrc:

:map<A-j>  <ESC>:tabprev<CR>

But this doesn't work. It DOES work if I map it to the control key.
When I look at the mapping in gvim (with ":map")  i see that the
tabprev function is mapped to 'e-(circumflex)', e.g. the letter 'e'
with a little hat on top.

Typing :help map-alt-keys says that in GVIM the alt key should
automaticaly be recognized.

How do I fix this? Any ideas?

Thank you!


How about :map <m-j> ...?
