 Setting this variable too high may slow down your typing.  Setting it too
 low may make it hard to type macros quickly enough.
+@item viper-translate-all-ESC-keysequences t on tty, nil on windowing display
+Normally, Viper lets Emacs translate only those ESC key sequences that are
+defined in the low-level key-translation-map or 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 nil. Try and see which
+way suits you best.
 @item viper-ex-style-motion t
 Set this to @code{nil}, if you want @kbd{l,h} to cross
 lines, etc.  @xref{Movement and Markers}, for more info.
