Description
Many people write about problems with Shift+Fn keys in mc under screen/tmux. I think, that the easiest way to prevent further hassles is to include following strings into /usr/share/mc/mc.lib:
[terminal:screen]
copy=xterm
I've tested it on mc-4.8.7 under screen and tmux.
Maybe similar thing has to be done for screen-256color, but I haven't tested it.

It turned out that on 4.8.7 (at least) - 4.8.9 even Home and End keys don't work under tmux (tmux-1.8).

It looks like this fix doesn't break anything, but helps for some terminals:
TERM=linux (linux console): Fixes shift+Fn for tmux.
TERM=rxvt-unicode (urxvt): Fixes shift+Fn for tmux.
TERM=xterm (xfce4-terminal, gnome-terminal, guake): Fixes shift+Fn for screen and tmux.
TERM=xterm (xterm): Fixes Home, End, Shift+Fn for tmux.

Would be good to also add
[terminal:screen-256color]
copy=xterm
It will fix shift+Fn for 256-color mode of tmux (tested) and likely 256-color mode of screen (not tested).
