2074.0. "ESC seq for function keys in dxterm?" by UFP::ROJ (Cooking with the ULTRIX Chef...) Thu Jan 18 1990 15:10

    Hello,
    	Is there any way, from within a dxterm on ULTRIX that I
    can generate ESC sequences for F1 thru F20 like in xterm?
    i.e. F1 = ^[[11~, F2 = ^[[12~, and so on...  I've read note
    930...but then it seemed kind of up in the air, Any changes
    to dxterm since then?

Re: .0

dxterm won't send escape sequences for F1 to F5 (and neither will a terminal).
It will send escape sequences for F6 to F20 as long as you are in VT300 mode
(rather than VT100 mode).  Go into Customize General and make sure you're
in either VT300 Mode, 8 Bit Controls or VT300 Mode, 7 Bit Controls.
