I think that I can provide some more info. According to, http://aperiodic.net/phil/archives/Geekery/term-function-keys.html
X11R6 xterm and XFree86 xterm produce difference keysequences for F1-F4(!). gnome-terminal and Terminal.app generate the same sequence as XFree86, but Terminal.app identifies itself as "xterm-color". Workaround: I found that if I changes the default keybindings in Terminal.app for F1, etc. from ^[OP, etc. to ^[[11~, etc., then all of the F keys work within byobu _without_ changing $TERM. I.e., TERM == xterm-color. Another data point. Open the native xterm under Apple's X11 (which generates the XFree86 keysequences), - Run byobu (I'm using the version from homebrew). F1-F4 work. - Exit byobu. "export TERM=xterm-color - Run byobu. F1-F4 do _not_ work. The difference lies in how byobu handles TERM==xterm and TERM==xterm- color. HTH.
