While working with the Euphoria source code on Linux, I was
observing the codes returning from the Function keys
I saw the same mention three key code sequences being returned.
I was using Suse 7.1 and runing in graphics mode but
using the keyboard codes returning from Euphoria. I do
not know the cause of the problem but it seems to be
coming Euphoria, I didn't go any further because I had
run into other problems which I am still trying to solve.
