Many thanks to those (MANY) people who replied, I have been given the fix
using the VT100 widget, which consists of adding the following to .Xdefaults:
+----------------------------
# make the keypad R1-R4 work like vt100 PF1-PF4
xterm*VT100.Translations: #override <Key>R1: string("^[OP") \n \
<Key>R2: string("^[OQ") \n \
<Key>R3: string("^[OR") \n \
<Key>R4: string("^[OS") \n
+----------------------------
Of course, the ^[ should be a real escape, not ^ followed by [
I am posting this for two reasons, first in two days (weekend, no less) I
got about a dozen requests for summaries, and second I am being inundated
with replies, most of which are similar to this technique.
Many thanks!
