    I would like to set up a global set of function key definitions to generate
    escape sequences.  I want to do this in such a way that it would work
    regardless of the window manager in use.

I don't understand what you think the problem is.  Generating an escape
sequence is usually peculiar to a "terminal"-like program.  The only interation
with a window manager should be if the window manager decides to usurp those
keys for its own use (e.g. using them in a passive grab on a window frame or
the root).

Perhaps you can be more specific (to the list) about what you have set up
and in what way it doesn't seem to work.
