    First of all, as everyone else has been saying, XEmacs 19.12 is
*great*.  Great work on it, guys!  Ok, now for the minor problem.

    I'm running XEmacs 19.12 on FreeBSD and on Solaris 2.4.  The Solaris
2.4 version will accept alt-x as M-x when I'm running XEmacs as
 "xemacs -nw" from an xterm.  However, on FreeBSD, this is not the case.  I
just get an "x" when doing so.  I'd really like to be able to use alt-x in
an xterm instead of ESC-x.  Any ideas?  adThanksvance!
