I am using a MacBook Pro with an external keyboard. The two option keys behave differently. The left one behaves as a meta key. This is what I want. I'm not sure what the right option key does, but here are a few key bindings (from C-h K):
option-x --> self-insert-command
option-rightArrow --> <right>
option-leftArrow --> <left>
I put this form in my .emacs file, and it had no effect:
(setq mac-option-modifier 'meta)
How can I make the right option key behave like the left one?
I imagine that this is a common question, but I cannot find any discussion of it. Thanks for your help.
