Bash 1.02, assorted BSD and SunOS systems.

Before I can use the meta-key in bash, I have to do `stty pass8'.  Tcsh, jove,
emacs, ... don't have this problem.  Any ideas ?

I use tcsh at the moment, although I'm looking hard at bash.  One of the
things I'd really miss is tcsh's M-$ spell-word command.  This runs through
the word just before the cursor, taking it as a filename (or a command name if
it's the first word on the line), and trying to correct its spelling by
adding, replacing, or deleting a single character, or transposing two
characters, in each pathname component.  I find it absolutely invaluable, I'm
forever typing `/usr/lbi/tex/macros': typing M-$ is so much easier than moving
the cursor back to the right place and typing ^T.

Just a suggestion.
