That's a problem! And here is the (one) solution...

Check out the emacs-init directory for the other stuff if it fancies
you, otherwise just use the loop to get everyday Emacs keys back.
I think I'll be adding a couple of more to that list before I'm happy
with vterm.

(defun use-vterm (new)
  (interactive "P")

              "\C-p"

  (disable-super-global-keys the-map)
  (dolist (k keys)
    (define-key the-map k nil) )
  (define-key the-map "\C-\M-p" #'vterm-send-C-p)
  (define-key the-map "\C-\M-n" #'vterm-send-C-n) )
