[comp.windows.x] arrow keys fail for xterm entry on Alliant FX40

	We have an Alliant FX/40 running Concentrix 5.5.02.  Recently
we installed X11R4.18.  A minor problem is that while emacs works
properly with TERM set to vt220 (or most vtxxx values), the arrow keys don't
work when TERM is set to xterm.  Is the best thing to do go out and
change the xterm arrow key entries to match those of the vt220 in
/etc/termcap?  Would it be better to replace Alliant's xterm entry
with a different (newer?) one entirely?  Any suggestions?  Thanks to
all who reply.

regards,
