Feedback:

In relation of virtual terminal and tty in relation of Supera key they
are not quite same. `konsole' is virtual terminal and allows usage of
Super key. For example loadkeys, dumpkeys, they don't work in XTerm
here as they cannot get descriptor of the console. That is not
same. Correct your text if you find it so after inspection of this
statement.

I see you have knowledge on that, so please, help us define Super key
to work in other virtual terminals such as XTerm and separately,
define Super key in tty. At least tell me what could be done or how
would you approach it even if it does not work at first.

Yesterday `showkey' have shown to me in tty that it is
125. Alright. Now how to make it work in Emacs?

Do you mean with loadkeys?

How?
