title: xmonad and Emacs : problem with 'mod' key
body: <p>I started using xmonad as my window manager a couple of weeks ago. I love it. Its great. But since then I have had to use 'ESC' key a lot when I am in emacs and want to press the 'ALT' key. This is because 'ALT' key is used by xmonad as the 'mod' key.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to assign the emacs mod key to anything other than the 'ALT' key like assigning it to the 'windows' key.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be higly appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,
  Vimal</p>
  
  <p>P.S.  this is the keyboard I am using
