Alistair,

Thanks for the response.  I'll try to answer your question:

I'm running RH 6.2.  I've tried this in a Gnome terminal, in xterm, and
in a console, all with similar results.  This morning I installed a
program called "kamplus", which is a program similar to Hostmaster, but
written for Linux.  I had the same trouble, and had to tell the Makefile
that my F1 key returns ^[OP after entering CTL-v, and then recompile. 
Apparently that program knows what to do for F1-F4 once you tell it what
F1 does.  Not being a Linux expert (but enjoying learning), I have only
a weak feel for what's going on here.

Thanks very much for the help.
