Check out the showkey man page.  Once you get the correct code the
keys emit you can add them to your .inputrc file like so...

# reset the screen F1
"ESC[[A": "reset\C-M"
# F2
"\033[[B": "finger @finger.kernel.org\C-M"
# F3
"\033[[C": "/sbin/iptables -L -n -v ; /sbin/iptables -L -t nat -n -v ; /sbin/iptables -L -t mangle -n -v \C-M"
# F4
"\033[[D": "rsgpm\C-M"
