But after installing the Meta Key Patch for the Alt Key (the Patch is submitted as file etc/XENIX) I was wondering how it works because it don't work at all. Nothing special happens after pressing ALT-v instead of ESC-v. ALT-v displays a "v" on the screen instead of scrolling back. Second - I have defined the COMPOSE Character Key on my Wyse 99 GT Terminal as Meta Key. But what happens - nothing. Same as above. Pressing Meta-v displays a v on the screen instead of scrolling back. Did I have to define the MetaKey anywhere ? Please help me out via direkt mail response.
