To remind you of the issue: curses applications will only see the first key in a list which matches a given string. While terminfo and termcap can store the same string using different names, curses only uses one. So... xterm-vt220 has "select" while xterm has "home". It's understandable why Emacs would say that "select" is undefined. But how that is related to kUP, I don't know - the answer would be in Emacs. -- Thomas E.
