Chances are, that you also don't have a right "Alt" key on your keyboard, but one labeled "Alt Gr" instead, that is intended for entering non-ascii characters (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AltGr_key). If you don't need any of these (I am not familiar with the Spanish keyboard layout, but I assume there are some accented keys on it), you can simple redefine the AltGr key as Meta_R in your X server's keyboard layout (If you have a newer 105-keys, you can also use on of those "Menu" or "Windows" keys) > This problem makes Emacs very difficult to use without remapping the keyboard. ? Emacs shouldn't care about which Alt key you use Regards, Peter Daum -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
