High F-Keys

I've found an issue with the Sifted F-Keys in Cygwin, Shift-F1 (or F13) is sending out the same escape sequence as F11, and the all the rest of the High F-Keys have the same sort of issue. I've created a patch that fixes this, as well as adds support for F23 and F24 (which weren't implemented bef
