Rather than have rxvt-unicode try to accommodate all the various possible
keyboard mappings, it is better to use `xmodmap' to remap the keys as
required for your particular machine.

The correct solution for this problem is to install the terminfo, this can

+be done by simply installing rxvt-unicode on the remote system as well

One some systems you might need to set \f(CW$TERMINFO\fR to the full path of

the rxvt terminfo file with the rxvt-unicode one and use \f(CW\*(C`TERM=rxvt\*(C'\fR.
