I'm trying to learn to use my shell to it's full potential.  In reading
the man page for tcsh, I see that I can search the history for a
command.  However, I don't understand what keystrokes I need to use to
search.  From the man page:

history-search-backward (M-p, M-P)

So how do I enter "M-p"?  What does it really want?  If it matters, I am
using SecureCRT with VT-100 emulation.

Thanks,

Drew
