>>On the Mac, firstly it's not possible cos the fkeys are already used,
>>and secondly... we can't really change the keycodes for menus.

On a related note, I'm using the curses library in an application (so
I'm a dinosaur), and the system has hijacked F1 through F4.  I can use
all of the other function keys.  Anybody know a way for me to gain
control of F1 through F4, or to at least disable them so an accidental
press of F1 doesn't crash my program?

Also, what keycode does the large "delete" key return?  Looking now at
the curs_getch(3X) man page, it's not KEY_DC and it's not KEY_BACKSPACE.
Anyone know?

Thanks,
Greg
