7.0.0 build 318 - Possible option key/Emacs meta bug
I've been using SecureCRT for OSX more recently, and I also tend to use Emacs a lot, but since the last update, the "Use option (ALT) as meta key" setting doesn't seem to be working for me.
When I hit Option-X, instead of activating M-x, Emacs just inserts this into character into my file ≈. Hitting ESC-x works fine and activates M-x. When in bash, typing part of a filename and then hitting escape twice will fire off tab-completion, but the alt key does not appear to do anything. Alt-[ sends “ Alt-] sends ‘ Alt-> (alt+shift+.) sends ˘ Alt-< (alt+shift+,) seems to be the one command that works. I am using the following settings: [X[ Use option (ALT) as meta key (o) Send escape for meta key I have tried this on remote Linux systems as well as local connections, with a variety of Terminal and Keyboard emulation modes. Any ideas? |
