The Alt key doesn't work as expected when I try to do command
line editing in xterm (eg. Alt-d to delete following word).
I don't think it's a problem with X, as Alt works fine in rxvt.
My X setup is standard Sarge with WindowMaker on amd64.

Thanks. Should have realised this was a feature. Putting the
following in my .Xresources file solved the problem:
XTerm*eightBitInput: false
