Well, if they're being passed through to the application, that's good in a
sense--at least the terminal emulator isn't intercepting them. To see
what sequence you need to capture, just do
cat > /dev/null
then press C-v (which will quote the leading escape character) and press
C-Up (or any other key you want to try). When I do it with xterm, I see
something like this:
$ cat > /dev/null
^[[5;2~
The "^[" represents the escape character (as you probably know; I'm just
being completist). Use C-d to stop cat and get back to your shell.
