You can enable 8 bit mode (which you need for the -m flag of bindkey), then type ^V, then some key with the meta key pressed down. For example, small e with an acute accent is \C-v\M-i (in Emacs language), and holding down shift at the same time has the obvious effect. -- Peter Stephenson <P.Stephenson@swan.ac.uk> Tel: +44 792 205678 extn. 4461 WWW: http://python.swan.ac.uk/~pypeters/ Fax: +44 792 295324 Department of Physics, University of Wales, Swansea, Singleton Park, Swansea, SA2 8PP, U.K. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

And what is the solution if the keys are remapped by xmodmap? Zsh beeps if I press the key of aacute, for example. On Linux I remapped the keys of the console also, so in an editor I can type in everything in character mode. But typeing at the prompt zsh beeps as in xterm...
