    I think this might be relevant as I get a lot of `|+'
    when I type meta (ALT) in emacs on xterm running gnome on raspberry pi 32or 64 bit raspbian.

    specifically alter ~/.Xresources by adding:
    XTerm*eightBitInput: false
    log out and log back in

    Or run xrdg -merge ~/.Xresources and restart the xterm.
