BTW, I don't know if anybody cares but...
I have a defkeymap.map which generates all the escape sequences for
the IRIX keyboard. IOW, it generates all the F1, F2,... escape

It can be retrieved from

Be sure to use the right mouse button and select "Save link as ..."
because Netscape tries to read it as an image file.
