Topic: F5-F10 in terminator shows a ~

while playing with autokey, I found a weird (for me, at least) behaviour in terminator.

in terminal, whenever I press either F5-F10 keys, I get an "~".
this using either IT or US keyboard mapping.

Any explanation/suggestion?

TIA

I think it happens in all terminals; or at least I tried with xterm, sakura, and rxvt.
