I'm trying to execute C-M-- from Emacs on Terminal (iTerm2) running on OSX, but I keep getting an error saying C-M-_ is undefined. Any ideas how to workaround this?

I eventually got this working by going into iTerm2 preferences and adding a new global shortcut key binding where I entered as Keyboard Shortcut ^⌥-, chose Action Send Escape Sequence and just typed - in the Esc+ field. That seems to do the trick.
Thanks @Gilles and @PythonNut for their help :)

M--works, but makes it a bit awkward for scrolling up on other window. Note that this is Emacs Terminal and henceC-M-S-vdoes not work.C-h l, I seeESC C-_being printed out when I executeC-M--
