Emacs and the ALT key.

["Allen B. Riddell" <ariddell@concentric.net>]

Ok... I can't remember if this started when I installed 2.2, but I suppose 
it doesn't really matter.

the ALT key (on my PC keyboard) doesn't seem to work in emacs.. It works in 
netscape -- and aside from that, I have absolutely no problems at all with 
anything...

I remember using xmodmap when I used redhat to make the backspace key -- 
but I think that wont work here -- for some reason.. since somewhere I read 
that my version of X doesn't use that xmodmap thing..


Anyway -- any help would be appreciated.
