SETMETAMODE(1)                                                  SETMETAMODE(1)



NAME
       setmetamode - define the keyboard meta key handling

SYNOPSIS
       setmetamode [ {meta|bit|metabit | esc|prefix|escprefix} ]

DESCRIPTION
       Without  argument, setmetamode prints the current Meta key mode.  With argument, it
       sets the Meta key mode as indicated.  The setting before and after the  change  are
       reported.

       The  Meta  key  mode  is specific for each VT (and the VT corresponding to stdin is
       used).  One might use setmetamode in /etc/rc to define the  initial  state  of  the
       Meta key mode, e.g. by
            INITTY=/dev/tty[1-8]
            for tty in $INITTY; do
                 setmetamode escprefix < $tty
            done

OPTIONS
       esc prefix escprefix
              The Meta key sends an Escape prefix.

       meta bit metabit
              The Meta key sets the high order bit of the character.
