How do you go about getting meta-key (alt) functionality while running
emacs or any other program that responds to the meta key under the
X11.app environment
By default the Command (Clover, Apple) key is the Meta key under X11,
but note in Preferences/Input you need to unselect "Enable key
equivalents" or menu shortcuts will take precedence over sending the
Meta key. Some folks (myself included) prefer to have the Option (alt)
key send Meta and the Command key send Alt -- this involves tweaking
your xmodmap. IWBNI it were just a preference, since a fair number of
people seem to like that mapping.
