Do you have a Meta key (typically bound to the Windows key on PC keyboards)? If so, does that work? Does ESC % work? What window manager are you using? Does it use Alt combinations for window manipulations? What X server are you using, and what version? _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
