Thanks for the quick response! I wondered about that too, but didn't
notice anything suspicious in the (attached) output.
I don't see, either. Just running my build against the resource file
works okay, so it's not _there_. Also, I built an xterm using the options
from the Debian package, and it still seems to work.
But in the past couple of weeks, I've been installing a new machine, and
noticed -on a couple of other Linux's- that there's some breakage in luit
which may be related (if you didn't happen to have the Latin-1 locale
installed, for instance).
Another thought - depends on what your meta key is. I've gotten two
recent reports which deal with a change I made a few years ago, to
suppress use of the meta (or alt) key by xterm if they appear in a
translations resource. A quick check seems to show the last change there
in mid-2008 (patch #238).
If it's not that, then it might help to know the older (good) version of
xterm. It looks like about a year since I made any interesting changes to
the input.c file, which would be where this is implemented.
(generally when I'm down to this point, it also helps to get a debug
trace).
