hi.
i was in olcr, and was trying to forward a question into the pickup
queue with the command:
olcr> f 0s pickup
Specified instance id "pickup" is not a number.
Segmentation violation
i mis-typed the "-s" option as "0s" and as you see got a segmentation
violation. This was with user ras, as shown below:

Question:
I am using ProComm on a PC, emulating a VT100 terminal. The problem is that
alt-(various keys) has meaning to ProComm, so I can't really use alt as a Meta
key. Do you know of anything I can do to solve the problem? I think I can
reconfigure keys in ProComm (but I'm not sure), so the value of Meta would
be helpful information. Some other key or string which acts as a Meta would
also be great.
