Another useful way to get the xterm cursor keys to work is to put
the following lines in your .Xdefaults.  This will have the 
added benefit of permitting ksh or tcsh command stacks to work
as well.  Note that F1 ... can be easily set up as well.

XTerm*VT100.translations: #override \
<KeyPress>Up:  string(0x10)\n\
<KeyPress>Down: string(0x0e)\n\
<KeyPress>Right: string(0x06)\n\
<KeyPress>Left: string(0x02)

If anyone has to use vi on your workstation then make a file
.exrc with the following information in it.

map  l
map  h
