Hi,

I use vim-latexsuite in an urxvt terminal with neo keyboard layout.
The terminal is set to _not_ send an ESC-prefix when meta is pressed,
but to set the 8th bit.
vim-latex has a mapping for 'meta-i' to insert the command for a new
item in a list.

When I press 'meta-i' followed by two arbitrary other keys, I get é in
vim now. When I press the keys usually needed to get é, vim does what
'meta-i' is supposed to do.

With the terminal set to send an ESC-prefix, behaviour does not change
much: meta-i moves the cursor to the left and é still inserts a new
item …


This is quite annoying, especially in combination with vim-latexsuite
which relies heavily on mappings using 'meta', and I was unable to get
it to work properly.
Am I missing something important?
Is this a problem in vim? Can it be fixed?

Thanks and best regards

henk
