You want to read the man page on bindkey. pF3 and pF4 now default to being the same as "copy" and "send", respectively, from the wsh menu. The easiest way to get the function keys back to their "correct" state is to issue the commands: "bindkey -l f3; bindkey -l f4". Note that key bindings are *per wsh*, so you will need to do this for each and every wsh. The easiest way (if you always want the change) is to put the commands in your ~/.cshrc. BTW, I've looked, and can't find any reference to this change in the on-line release notes.
