Re: Xterm and function keys

[Andy Spiegl <debian-user.Andy@spiegl.de>]

Hi again!

Sorry to bother you again with this, but unfortunately noone replied.  Must 
have chosen a bad time for my posting. :-)

I discovered a strange thing:
In an xterm the function keys produce the following:
 F1 -> ^[OP
 F2 -> ^[OQ
 F3 -> ^[OR
 F4 -> ^[OS
 F5 -> ^[[15~
 F6 -> ^[[16~
...

On a different system (I tried SuSE) they produce:
 F1 -> ^[[11~
 F2 -> ^[[12~
 F3 -> ^[[13~
 F4 -> ^[[14~
 F5 -> ^[[15~
 F6 -> ^[[16~
...
which seems more correct.  I also get this behaviour on my Debian (potato)
box when I use rxvt or konsole.

I don't think I misconfigured anything, because I confirmed this behavior
with a newly added user, too.  Do you have any idea where the problem is?

Thanks a lot,
 Andy.
