Hey all


  I can't figure out how to map my ALT-1 keys to use the escape codes like they should.  I know this isn't a FreeBSD default.. but I can't take full advantages of the IRC-II version BitchX.  BitchX uses ALT-1 ALT-2 ... etc.. keys to switch between windows, but the keymaps in FreeBSD are set up to map ALT-1 as just simply '1' where as I would like it to use the escape code. (ie ^[1 or whatever it is)  Is there anyway you change this?  Thanks
