On the VT-100, the cursor (arrow) keys produce   ESC [   followed by 
one of  A, B, C, or D.

The shifted PF keys produce    ESC O    and  A, B, C, or D.

Gosling Emacs seems to respect this convention.
But in GNU Emacs, both sets of keys produce the  ESC O  prefix,
to the effect that those keys are no longer distinguishable.

Can someone tell me how to get back the ESC [ prefix for the arrow keys?

Thanks.
