I'm looking in to learning emacs or vim. I started out with emacs but found the need for a meta key to be a hassle, especially since I have a non-english keyboard layout on my macbook.
So far I haven't seen any references to meta in vim, so my question is: Can I live without meta in vim?
If so that'll settle the vim vs. emacs question for me, otherwise I'll just have to learn to live with some workaround.
