Question: Function keys in Xterm/RXVT

[Uwe Schmidtmann]

Hi out there!

I got a question concerning xterm and rxvt with cygwin.

When I run xterm under LinuX, all function keys are passed to the 
application running (e.g. Midnight Commander). When I try doing the same 
with cygwin, only F1 to F4 are passed through, F5 and higher result in 
some key messages on the command line. With rxvt none of the function 
keys work.

When I log into a linux box and start xterm on the remote session (still 
display is the cygwin box) erverything works (all function keys and even 
mouse support).

What did I miss with the cygwin installation of xterm? Did I make a 
serious configuration mistake?

Regards,

Uwe

ps: hope this is the right list...
