Run the following script command in TERM for Linux:
setkey sf1 “text”
No matter how it’s actually mapped, Shift-F1 does nothing. The same is true all the way through Shift-F12. Ctrl-function keys also fail, as do Ctrl+Shift and Alt keys. You can see this by running:
term -z ktest.cmd
In fact, Shift-F5 displays as “sf1” using that script. Shift-F8 is “sf4” and nothing past that works at all.
This also affects TERM for SCO UNIX versions 6.2.5b and 6.28 running on SCO 5.0.6 or higher. SCO maintenance pack 2 for SCO OpenServer 6 restores the system console to ANSI, instead of the default AT386. This fixes the problem on that particular OS.
