You can also emit escape sequences using `SendString`. This example shows
how to bind Alt-LeftArrow/RightArrow to the Alt-b/f, an emacs style
keybinding for moving backwards/forwards through a word in a line editor:
```lua
local wezterm = require 'wezterm';
return {
keys = {
-- Make Option-Left equivalent to Alt-b which many line editors interpret as backward-word
{key="LeftArrow", mods="OPT", action=wezterm.action{SendString="\x1bb"}},
-- Make Option-Right equivalent to Alt-f; forward-word
{key="RightArrow", mods="OPT", action=wezterm.action{SendString="\x1bf"}},
}
}
```
