xterm and the keyboard

Debian has modified the key translations that xterm uses to make its
behavior more consistent with the Linux virtual
console. This has been achieved by setting the following X resource in
/etc/X11/Xresources/xterm.

      *VT100.Translations: #override <Key>BackSpace: string("\177")\n\
                                           <Key>Delete:
					   string("\033[3~")\n\
					   <Key>Home: string("\033OH")\n\
					   <Key>End: string("\033OF")

The *VT100*backarrowKey was introduced into recent versions of xterm
released by XFree86; other versions of xterm will not recognize this
resource.
