This may be a simple question, but how do you (if it is possible) assign a
string to a function key?  Background:  I am using Herr Roell's X server for
SYSV/386, and I would like to define F1,F2,F3, and F4 to be PF1, PF2, PF3, PF4
(as on a vt100 terminal).  Since this probably isn't of much general interest,
to save bandwidth it is probably best just to reply directly to me. Thanks in
advance.

(I am sure that you can use xmodmap for this, but I have no ideas what the
incantations are.)
