Hey misc readers, (I don't see general questions on ports@, is this
the right list?)

As an avid user of Pidgin I decided to look into the distributed
console based client "Finch", after sifting through the man pages I
managed to make the context menu work properly in xterm, but when I
tried to use the port outside of X.. it didn't go over so well.

After searching for solutions, I found that I could either:
1) Use the Escape key.
2) Remap the Alt key using, "wsconsctl keyboard.map+="keycode 56=Cmd2 Escape"

Unfortunately, it's still not working as expected... pressing Alt(or
Escape) + 'a' was supposed to bring up a context menu.. but it
disappears suddenly.

I'm using OpenBSD 4.3, with pidgin 2.3.1.
