Jim,

For xterm, these are the .Xdefaults entries I have on my Mac Mini -

XTerm*VT100*c132:       True
XTerm*VT100*Font:       7x14
XTerm*scrollBar:        True
XTerm*background:       black
XTerm*foreground:       green
XTerm*customization:    -color
XTerm*decTerminalID:    220
XTerm*utf8:             0

I use this with a full-sized Apple keyboard and it just works.

In the past I used a shell script to tweak various key mappings.

The xterm FAQ site at https://invisible-island.net/xterm/xterm.faq.html
has further explanations and a sample of the script you can
adapt for your keyboard as required.

Tony
