	I recall from back in my DOS days that I could accessfunction
keys from F13 on by adding both shift and control keys into the mix in
different combinations.  But then again, I was using an Omnikey Ultra
keyboard, which was pretty fancy for that day.  It had DIP switches in
the back that allowed you to configure the thing for a Dvorak layout,
re-assign the capslock and shift keys, and a slew of other neat tricks.
If you can even find them, they're now going for $200 and up, used, and
cost only $70 when they were new.  Anyway, it might only take some
editing of a keyboard config to make F13 on accessible with the addition
of the shift and control keys.
