that would depend on what terminal you're running.  note that 'xfterm4'
just runs xterm by default, or whatever your TERMCMD environment variable
specifies.  xfce doesn't come with its own terminal (yet).

so essentially, the answer you're looking for is: either reconfigure
your terminal to not use that key for menus, or, if that isn't possible,
use a different terminal that doesn't use that key.
