Has any gotten the meta key to work with X11 on a 4D machine.
Apparently, the keyboard translation for NeWS windows doesn't apply to
an X11 window so we are without a meta key when we run xemacs or tcsh.
If I run xemacs remotely on my Sun, the xemacs on the Iris recognizes
the 200 bit correctly so I suspect the problem is in the keyboard
translation.  Whatever the cause, the meta is never recognized on the
Iris keyboard.
