It's not just MMBasic. There are no standard codes for anything using Ctrl or ALT, especially with function keys. In fact, some keyboard drivers allow you to configure most if not all of these to anything you like.

We assume some things like Ctrl-C and Alt-F4 but they are not standard codes, they are non-printing codes for the OS, not a terminal. The latter, in fact, is meaningless outside Windows.

Terminal emulators in particular are extremely fussy about the way in which they use control codes and you have to stick to the rules.
