Subject: Behavior of M-x and A-x
Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2008 19:48:49 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <g7pu21$spu$1@online.de> (raw)
Hello,
sitting on a Sun keyboard, which behaves always a bit unusual...
There are two keys on my keyboard: One marked with a diamond and the
other one with "Alt" letters. Both behave different. So "M-x" and
"A-x" give different commands. The usual meta commands like "M-x",
"M-q", etc. are bound to the M-key, all the A-<keys> seem to be
unbound.
Is there a way to make emacs use A-key like the meta key?
TIA -- Peter
