	I have newly bought a color slab and want to use <Alternate> as my
META key in Emacs except for <Alt>- and <Alt>/ which I want mapped to | and
\ respectively.  I can remap those keys with Keyboard.app or set Stuart2.4 to
use <Alternate> as my META key, but I want BOTH at the same time.  I do not
want to use <ESC> as my meta key, or give up any normal ASCII mapping on the
main (left) part of the keyboard.  If I could map my keys to be multiple
keystrokes, then I could map most of my <Alt> characters to be the normal
character prepended with an <ESC> except for <Alt>- and <Alt>\.  Can anyone
help me on this?  Maybe I'm missing something in the FAQ's or a utility to
do this from an ftp site.  Any info is appreciated.
