Subject: Making ESC not a prefix key while keeping Alt = Meta
Date: 8 Sep 2006 13:49:52 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1157748592.520351.123650@i3g2000cwc.googlegroups.com> (raw)

Since in my Emacs Alt key functions as Meta key, I never have to use
Esc to enter Meta-something. Though this breaks with the long-lasting
Emacs tradition, I would like to make ESC key call keyboard-quit
function, similar to Ctrl-g. Of course, I'd like to keep Alt = Meta. Is
it possible to do so?

I am using Linux and GNU Emacs 21.3.1.

Thank you.
