Let's try to pin this down. According to the VT220 manual, the DEC F11
key is supposed to send:
<CSI>23~
where CSI is "<ESC>[" in 7-bit mode, or character 155 (decimal) in
8-bit mode.
Experimentation shows that if you:
set key \315 \KdecF11
and then you press the F1 key, then Kermit sends exactly the right
characters. So the problem would seem to be elsewhere.
