+
+To use option key under macOS as Meta key use the option
+`option_as_alt` and set it to `"Both"`.
+
+This is the example for the newer Toml file format.
+
+```toml
+# ~/.alacritty.toml
+[window]
+option_as_alt = "Both"
+```
+
+And this is the older YAML format.
+
+```yaml
+# ~/.alacritty.yml
+window:
+  option_as_alt: Both
+```
