Why don't you use xterm? The mappings are already correct. And as a bonus, you actually get a VT100 emulation with less bugs.
Where are the config files for xterm stored? I want it to look less 1982 and have a font that doesn't require a microscope to read.
It's an X application. You either set parameters on the command line, or use the X resource database for it.
(man xrdb)
Besides, if you emulate a terminal from 1982, why would it not look like 1982?

Looks like crap? Not sure I agree with that. It does not have a lot of eye candy and similar drivel. Instead it just looks like a terminal - which is what I think it should look like.
As a bonus, I'll get Erik's SIXEL support too..
Erik's? Who is Erik? I know of SIXEL support for xterm, and I believe I know the guy who wrote it, and his name is not Erik...
Or have two people done similar work at the same point in time?

Turns out iTerm 2 supports the same key mappings as xterm, out of the box.
Terminal.app does SORT of but is a bit random..

Well actually I did not write the SIXEL support for XTerm,
but did write SIXEL support for gnuplot and the ZX81 emulator
(http://rullf2.xs4all.nl/sg/zx81ce.html) to be used within XTerm.
