Hello Alan,
Thanks for replying. It seems I didn't make myself clear.
Please go to a graphic terminal, press ^V then F1 or F2 or Home or
Left or any of the functional keys. You are inserting the keystring
associated with those keys. Home for instance has "^[OH" (not same
as in text console).
Where are these strings listed? Surely there must be a header file
somewhere? How it is called? Where is it?
Those are defined in the terminal emulator you are using, not X itself,
and have nothing to do with xmodmap.
Check the source code of xterm, gnome-terminal, etc. (Sorry, I don't
know the exact .c or .h file there.) They should be referenced in the
matching termcap/terminfo entries as well.
Not exactly (gnome-terminal as such is a wrapper around vte, which provides
all of the terminal emulation part).
vte uses strings, and has a partial implementation of code to read a
termcap entry and interpret the function-keys defined there. xterm
doesn't use strings (except for a more-complete feature to interpret
terminfo/termcap entries, likewise for the function-keys). Reading both
sources might be educational.
