However, I find that it doesn't work until this bindkey is executed twice. I have not changed anything drastic in the bindkey routines while porting to NT (as far as i know anyway), so I'm wondering if 3.0.5 shows the same behaviour on unix as well. Unfortunately, I can't verify this on unix myself (the telnet i have doesn't map alt to meta. escape doesn't seem to work too well) I was hoping one of you had used this before, or knows what might be happening. thanks, -amol
