I am using a DEC VT-520 terminal with a DEC LK411-AA keyboard to access an OpenBSD install on a DEC VAX machine. I am unable to figure out how to send a meta key signal to mg (or Emacs once I figure out how to install it on the VAX).
If there is not one to begin with, is it possible to reprogram a key (single key please rather than a sequence) to serve as Meta.
Thanks.

BTW Esc does not seem to work instead of Meta on this keyboard/terminal.

I am using C-[ on x86 hardware.
So, if I want M-x, I type C-[ x .
