It seems in the case that Mono is not translating CSI escape codes to
their corresponding symbolic value.  For example, if you strike the
home key in a console that doesn't interpret it (e.g. bash will not
work) then you will see "^[OH".  ^[ is the representation of the
escape key.

If you think Mono should do this translation for you then you might
file a bug report about it.  You could also interpret them yourself.
