Hi Eli and Ken,
Thank you for all your investigations.

Aha! That's how to do it.

Yes, I see the same with this one.

In Cygwin 1.5 xterm (TERM=xterm), with "emacs -q -nw" (or also with "-f
tpu-edt") I get
ESC [ > 1 ; 2 4 2 ; 0 c ESC O q ESC O r ESC O s ESC
O t ESC O u ESC O v ESC O P l
The initial "ESC [ > 1 ; 2 4 2 ; 0 c" is just the response from xterm, asked
for its version number (242). The "ESC O q" to "ESC O v" are the keypad
"123456", but somehow with numlock on (perhaps this is a feature of my
Exceed X-server). The "ESC O P l" is the "F1 l" at the end.
Despite the differences, it looks like neither of us is getting any
interpretation of the keys.
Thanks,
Tim.
