This would be for xterm with modifyFunctionKeys:0

I made a list in xterm (duplicated in ncurses) called "xterm+pcf0".

and this would be with modifyFunctionKeys:2

The corresponding list is called "xterm+pcf2", and corresponds to the
default settings.

The terminfo entries are built up in chunks to make it (relatively) simple
to patch the terminfo to reflect different preferences for
resource-settings.

refer to

ftp://invisible-island.net/ncurses/terminfo.src.gz

which lists several of the chunks for xterm (not all combinations - there
are many).
