meta keys?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In redhat releases and in other operating systems, a default xterm window will provide me with a shell wherein <alt>-<delete> will backward delete a word, <alt>-b, will move the cursor backward a word, <alt>-f will move forward a word, etc. That is, emacs editing mode works and acts on the meta keys.

This doesn't work on fedora core 3, at least not out of the box. Can anyone explain to me what I need to do to get my meta key editing back, please? Or point me to relevant documentation that might help me figure out what's going on?

I'm going fugbuck trying to type whenever I sit down in front of a fedora box.
