-@item viper-translate-all-ESC-keysequences @code{t} on tty, @code{nil} on windowing display
-Normally, Viper lets Emacs translate only those ESC key sequences that are
-defined in the low-level @code{input-decode-map}, @code{key-translation-map}
-or @code{function-key-map}, such as those
-emitted by the arrow and function keys. Other sequences, e.g., @kbd{\\e/}, are
-treated as @kbd{ESC} command followed by a @kbd{/}. This is good for people
-who type fast and tend to hit other characters right after they hit
-ESC. Other people like Emacs to translate @kbd{ESC} sequences all the time.
-The default is to translate all sequences only when using a dumb terminal.
-This permits you to use @kbd{ESC} as a meta key in insert mode. For instance,
-hitting @kbd{ESC x} fast would have the effect of typing @kbd{M-x}.
-If your dumb terminal is not so dumb and understands the meta key, then you
-probably will be better off setting this variable to @code{nil}. Try and see which
-way suits you best.
