It should be all done by the SetMap command.

If I remember correctly this command should have been present from 1.2 and on. Open your startup-sequence and look where it says:

Setmap f

...and change it to:

Setmap usa

and that should fix the problem.

There is a great small utility called setkey, it allows you to make your own keymap, so you can use those F-keys..etc
