There appears to be a bug in Mush 6.5.6 handling macros activated by codes that
end in tilde's.  I'm trying to use the "map" command in line mode to define
commands to be executed when I press my VT220 compatible terminal's function
keys.  These function keys all end with a tilde.

The command in my .mushrc is:
        map '\E[20~' "echo f9 was pressed\n"

When I press function key "f9" after a prompt, instead of displaying the
message, mush usually pauses for a second, then displays '^E[20~', exactly what
the function key sent, on the command line, as though it didn't recognize the
macro.  I say usually, because once in a while it works correctly, but about
90% of the time it doesn't.  I can't isolate any conditions that cause it to
fail repeatedly.

If I manually type the key sequence in, it executes the macro correctly, and
displays my message.  If I press the function key and then any other key
immediately (such as the space bar), the macro is expanded perfectly.  If I map
the code leaving off the tilde, it works every time, except for the unfortunate
side effect of having a tilde placed at the beginning of the next command
line.

Can someone please help me find a way to get mush to reliably handle my
function key macros?
