I'm running a Toshiba Tecra 730CDT, and the Alt key in emacs under X
works fine in combination with other keys without any special setup.
What model is
Hi,
Well it may not quite follow the discussion... I'm using XEmacs 20 and X-3.2.2
(hamm). I have the keyboard with "Windows" button neighbouring to ALT button.
It works like ESC in XEmacs. May be it's good enough solution. The good
