title: Just getting used to paredit in emacs on OS X - how come C-) doesn't work?
body: <p>I've recently set up a Common Lisp programming environment in Mac OS X Leopard.  One emacs module which I've found to be indispensable is paredit.  Paredit is doing its part to help me wrangle my Lisp code more easily, but I've ran into a bit of a snare. </p>
  
  <p>C-), bound to <code>paredit-forward-slurp-sexp</code>, is not forward slurping sexps but instead echoing the number <code>0</code>.  I'm using a Mac, alternating between iTerm and Terminal.  The same problem is present in both apps.</p>
  
  <p>I tried the same key combination in GNU Emacs' GUI version, and lo, it worked.  Unfortunately the graphical version of Emacs does not satisfy my needs; I would like to keep using my iTerm based rig.</p>
  
  <p>So I ask you, stackoverflow: what do I have to do to get the C-) combo to register with iTerm?</p>
