I don't think there is a [print] key anymore anywhere... "PrtSc" is
something else and in general never should reach emacs because it is
intended to take screenshots; so the desktop or window manager should
intercept it before.

I think that definitively "\e[29~" may be bound to [menu] in
xterm. Somehow confirmed by the xterm maintainer in an email:

"in a quick check the key which I guessed is "menu" (between the Windows
key and the Ctrl key on the right-side of my keyboard) does send ^[[29~
and xev says that's "Menu""

As this may potentially break the universe for some reason I am not
aware of, I will wait for Eli's, Stefan's or Lars' authorization on
this.
