by my understanding, xterm is intended to produce F13-F24 for Shift+F1-Shift+F12, F25-F36 for Ctrl+F1-Ctrl+F12, etc.

This is supported by http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/xorg/xc/programs/xterm/terminfo?revision=1.5&view=markup
as well as http://aperiodic.net/phil/archives/Geekery/term-function-keys.html

If that's true, then xterm does not do what terminfo says; i.e. it does not produce kf25 for ctrl+F1.

Am I incorrect in that understanding?
