Hi Stefan:

Please give a look to my last email to Eli. I attached an answer from
the xterm maintainer respecting to that. That included a xev output and
his comment about this.

xterm does not map either [print] or [menu] in terminfo but maps
kf16=\E[29~ (that's why urxvt mapped S-<f6> == <f16> == [menu] according
to their convention)

In xterm that mapping (S-<fX> == <f10+X>) depends of the variable
modifyFunctionKeys. But in any case this does not affect the [menu] key
that is not translated.

The real question is why emacs mapped \E[29~ to [print] in xterm;
because the Print key is normally intercepted by the windows manager.

Best,
Ergus
