I've just installed epoch 4.2, and I'm afraid I need some help.

I want to type 8-bit characters, so I compiled with EIGHTBIT_KEYBOARD defined.
However, epoch interprets my meta-characters as ESC-character. I can only type
them as ^q-number, and then it displays them correctly.

I'm using X11R5 on a sun 4.1.2. In the xterms I can type meta-characters
normally, and see them (after setting stty pass8).

At line 1438 of x11term.c it's said that meta-characters are split in
ESC+ASCII. Is this what has to be done?
