For the putty setting, go from putty -> change setting -> terminal ->
keyboard, there are a lot of options and I list them here

Change the sequences sent by:
The Backspace key  --  Control+?(127)
The Home and end key -- Standard
The Function keys and keypad -- ESC(n~

Application keypad setting:
initial state of cursor keys: -- Normal
Initial state of numerical keypad -- Normal

Enable extra keyboard setting: Control+Alt is different from AltGr

------------------------

For your information, I also list choices in putty -> change setting ->
terminal,
Set various terminal options  (checked)
   Auto wrap mode initially on
  Use background color to erase screen

Answerback to ^E:   -- putty

Line discipline options:
Local echo -- Auto
Local line editing -- Auto

-------------

There are several options for the three items, I tried to modify to other
options, but does not help in gnuplot, the keys changed from 1~ to wH etc.

For the command "echo $TERM" running on the remote computer, it returns
xterm.

The version of putty I used is 0.60 with Cyg enhanced, that is, it is
puttyCyg

Thanks for further help!
