Yes- it boils down to the fact I'm using Exceed on Windows rather than using something more like a proper x-terminal. So it's not obvious which key should logically be mapped to Meta, and Windows seems to be grabbing the ones I try to use, such as the two "Windows" keys. The "Use CTRL instead of Meta" option someone mentioned has got things working comfortably. -- Dr. Craig Graham, Software Engineer Advanced Analysis and Integration Limited, UK. http://www.aail.co.uk/
