Hi, Meta key (alt option in mac osx keyboard - 10.8) does not work correctly. It works for META -> but not META e for example… I read that I may need to remap the meta key?
Has anyone else knows a way around?

THere are different alternatives. The easiest one is to turn option key as meta in the preferences of the mac os x terminal. You do loose the ability for special characters… <br>There other more fancy alternatives.
If anyone is interested, I found two webpages with some info how to resolve this problem. I haven’t had a chance to try it yet, but whenever I do, I will let you know. <br>http://stackoverflow.com/questions/500602/os-x-terminal-meta-key-alt-functionality-at-the-same-time <br> <br> <br>http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MetaKeyProblems <br> <br>
