emacs meta key

I'm trying to figure out how to have my capi editor-pane use alt as the 
emacs meta key (LWM). I can do this in the Editor with the window 
preference, but I don't see how to set it for my interface editor-pane.

Also, the docs say:

Note: editor panes support both GNU Emacs keys and MS Windows keys. 
Exactly one style of emulation is on any time for each editor pane. By 
default, editor panes in the Common LispWorks development environment 
use Emacs emulation on all platforms. By default, editor panes in 
delivered applications use Windows emulation on Windows, and Emacs 
emulation on other platforms. To alter the choice of emulation, see 
interface-keys-style.

In my delivered application (Mac) interface-keys-style returns :emacs. 
If I add a method for my interface that returns :mac, I don't see any 
difference in the interface style. Is it a changeable preference in a 
delivered application?


Thanks,

John DeSoi, Ph.D.
