I might be barking up the wrong tree here, but is it a coincidence
that the letters affected are s and q, when you look at the default
content of dot.profile ?

Have a look at your .profile file and make sure that the tset line is
in good shape.

It should read:

 if [ -x /usr/bin/tset ]; then
         eval `/usr/bin/tset -sQ \?$TERM`
 fi

I use the ksh shell. Tried csh in an xterm, no problem there (I can
use the characters there). So, is something I can tweak to make them
work in ksh?

Actually if you're having the same problems on a tty,
you might want to ssh in remotely and change your default

Have you tried logging in as a different user?  Do you still
have the same problems regardless of the shell you use?
