Package: xterm Version: 242-1 Severity: wishlist Hello,
By default, metaSendsEscape is set to false, which makes the meta key useless by default in readline-based programs, since the default readline configuration is to enable 8bit-clean mode. Shouldn't we enable metaSendsEscape by default? What is the use of meta setting the 8th bit? Just stream optimization?
