I am used to the keys ctrl-alt-t switching on and off threading, when
using emacs/gnus in an xterm window. However on this version of linux I
am using it is responding with \224 is undefined.
I am using xdm+ctwm.
If I run emacs on the console, or in other terminal emulators it
works. But I always use xterm.
How do I change this? What controls this behavior? I suspect something
in /etc/X11/

Try changing the metaSendsEscape resource.
