I just got emacs up and running on my machine, and I must say that I'm quit
impressed with it's performance.  However, I am having one problem.  I've been
unable to correctly bind the cursor keys.  Just what sort of control sequence
do these suckers send?  I was assuming the ESC [ A for up business, but that
doesn't seem to work.  I am missing something here?  Do I need to *shudder*
edit the termcap and add something?

Thanks for any help!

James
