Re: [Mlterm-dev-en] How to get "Alt+." key combination working

[Vlad <vo...@vo...>]

Thanks for a quick replay! In the mean time I've found that the
"mod_meta_mode = esc" indeed solves the problem (before I had
"mod_meta_mode = utf8"). As I understood, this issue is more generic and
if you're enable something like "eightBitInput" "Alt" key will not work
in xterm as well. From another side, I really don"t know what is the
right settings of the "mod_meta_mode" option for me (I'm using Western
European and Cyrillic languages only).


Regards,
Vlad.
