This is my /usr/local/emacs/lisp/term/iris.el file:

(defun enable-function-keys ()
  "Enable the use of the iris arrow and function keys.
Because of the nature of the iris, this unavoidably breaks
the standard Emacs command ESC [; therefore, it is not done by default,
but only if you give this command."

See lisp/keypad.el in the emacs sub-tree for additional documentation.
You have to add something like (setq term-setup-hook 'enable-function-keys)
to your .emacs file.

In my .emacs file I have more stuff takeing care of the iris terminal.
Like mapping the Ctrl-Left Arrow to backward-word and assigning the
usual meaning to the Back Space key etc. This is pretty personal stuff
(and there's a lot 8) ) so I decided not to post it here, but if
anyone is interested...

I think I have seen several iris specific keymaps on the net. One
place to look is in freja.diku.dk (close to me anyway...).
