I'm using a DECterm in vt100 mode on a DEC5000/200 under Ultrix 4.2a and
was wondering how I can use the function keys when in VI. Specifically,
I want to map the key sequence put out when a function key is hit to a
VI command. I thought the key sequences were of the form:

        \EOQ (for F2, for example, where \E = <esc>, i.e a 3 character
              sequence, 7 bits per char)

But this doesn't work when I map it to a VI command.

Any ideas out there???
