Hello,
I am wondering what is happening when I hold down the Alt/Meta key
when I press characters. If I hit Alt-B+B I get something that looks
like a bomb. The other keys I've tried just look to double the
character I've pressed. Can I modify this behaviour so that I can
recognize Alt key combinations? I'm thinking this is part of the
kernel keyboard driver, am I correct?
I'm trying to modify rio to handle for Alt-F (forward-word) and Alt-B
(backward-word).
