Default ncurses & function keys

I am moving some applications from FreeBSD to OpenBSD which use ncurses. I can't get the function keys to work in OpenBSD. TERM= vt220. Pressing a function key returns an escape sequence instead of the value defined in ncurses.h. Does anyone have a suggestion.

Thanks.

Default ncurses and function keys - new terminal type based on vt220

I had trouble with the midnight commander (mc) program using the vt220 terminal emulation and decided to create my own new TERM types.

I called them "openbsd" and for monochrome, '"openbsd-m".

Below is a script I wrote to create a .terminfo directory and termcap file in my local user home directory.

To use the script, run it and then put this in the .profile

export TERM=openbsd

I call the script maketerminfo.sh

Code:
#! /bin/sh
set -e
INFODIR=$HOME/.terminfo
CAPFILE=$HOME/.termcap
/bin/cat << THERE

 Create new terminfo/termcap entries called
   openbsd and openbsd-m
 by making a new terminfo file and terminfo entries in
 my $INFODIR directory
 and by creating my own termcap file as $CAPFILE
-----------------------------------------------------
 To use the new terminfo/termcap entries,
 put something like this in your .profile

    export TERM=openbsd

 Or if you prefer monochrome:

    export TERM=openbsd-m

THERE
/bin/mkdir -p $INFODIR
cd $INFODIR
/bin/cat /dev/null      > terminfo
/bin/cat << HERE       >> terminfo
# This is a newer version of vt220 for OpenBSD that
# fixes the Function keys and the Home and End keys.
