|  Defining Function Keys
In BASIC:
FOR I = 1 TO 8 : KEY I, CHR$(I+132) : NEXT
In Machine Language:
Function key defenition length table is at $055f to $0566. Function key definitions themsevles are stored at $0567 - $05e6. The function key definition routine is at - in KERNAL.
My "Programmer's Reference Guide for the Commodore Plus/4" doesn't give ML code to define the keys, but it was listed in a Compute!'s Gazette back in the mid-80's for the 128. Substituting the above addresses for the 128's addresses should work.
I have a 19 month old baby pulling at every book I open, so I hesitate to get the magazines out right now. Maybe I can find it in the morning before she wakes up (local time is 9:05pm, hopefully I can answer in 10 hours or so).

| Defining Function Keys in ML
It was in my "Programmer's Reference Guide" after all, just not listed in the index! 
Page 172: "There is an unofficial ROM subroutine that redefines a function key. Store the key to redefine (0 to 7) in $76, the address of the new definition in $22-$23, load .A with the length of the definition and call the subroutine at ."
Hope this helps!
