Included is a patch for the standard kernel keymap file. This patch adds a
shift-alt modifier map, so you can type things like Meta-> and Meta-< in
Emacs using your Meta key instead of having to press ESC all the time.
It is relative to 2.1.124, but I'm sure it applies to other versions of the
kernel as well.
Kars.
P.S. I'm not on the mailing list, so please Cc: to me if you reply.
