For any particular machine the easy way to figure out
key the keybindings needed is to use ^Q and press the key
you are interested in.  The exact key sequence is displayed
in the emacs buffer.  Now you can program the key using
global-set-key as you described.

(global-set-key "\e[225z" 'goto-line)

Substitute the sequence you saw in the buffer.  If you do this
in the *scratch* buffer you can try it out by hitting line feed
instead of return after you type it in.

If the key doesn't send any sequence after ^Q then your pretty
much out of luck although you might try the termcap entries or
in X the xterm resources can be setup to send the sequence.

Hope this helps.
