Hello, This question is within -HEAD and ports as well from -HEAD: $ pkg info | egrep 'xorg-7|xterm|rxvt' rxvt-unicode-9.20 Clone of the terminal emulator rxvt modified to support Unicode xorg-7.7_1 X.Org complete distribution metaport xterm-312 Terminal emulator for the X Window System I run this 11C on a small netbook (Acer C720) which does not have physical keys for PG_UP/DOWN; that's why I use xmodmap to define Mode_switch + UP --> Prior Mdee_switch + Down --> Next xmodmap -e "keycode 98 = Up Up Prior" xmodmap -e "keycode 104 = Down Down Next" When I now do in the terminal urxvt holding down both Mode_switch and Shift, it scrolls fine with the Up and Down keys as expected: the terminal window is scrolled up and down. When I do the same, the key is delivered to the xterm itself and I can see them, for example, with 'od -c' as: $ od -c ^[[5;2~^[[5;2~ ^[[6;2~^[[6;2~ 0000000 033 [ 5 ; 2 ~ 033 [ 5 ; 2 ~ \n 033 [ 6 0000020 ; 2 ~ 033 [ 6 ; 2 ~ \n 0000032 The 033 [ 5 ; 2 ~ for Up and the 033 [ 6 ; 2 ~ for down. Why this does not work in xterm?
