TERM has several of the function keys preset for certain actions, such as opening the menu or help. You can reset those by editing the .termsys file in UNIX, or the term.sys file in DOS. Search the file for lines that start with the word setkey; for example:

setkey f1 menu

Change the word after the function key name (in this example, menu) to reset:

setkey f1 reset

This will reset the keys to their default values the next time you start TERM.
