  I am using MicroEmacs 3.9e on VAX-VMS and UNIX with various VT100 type
terminals and emulators( including UNITERM) and the cursor keys work. Maybe
the MicroEmacs needs to be recompiled with #define VT100 1 (in estruct.h).
This allows decoding of 3 byte ANSI escape sequences for cursor keys ,
PF1-PF4 and keypad. It still won't decode the 5 byte VT200 function keys 
(F1- F20) ( ESC[nn~) but it is possible to write macros to do that.
Apparently the new MicroEmacs 3.10 (why not 4.0?) handles
special function keys better.
