In emacs editing mode, ksh by default interprets a set 8th bit as
meta prefix, i.e. all characters with the top bit set (>= 0x80) are taken as commands and cannot be entered literally. Introduce a new shell option, emacs-usemeta, that allows to toggle this behavior. The default is the traditional behavior; to enter 8-bit characters use "set +o emacs-usemeta". ok fgsch@, henning@
