Your terminal is sending the IBM "Remove" sequence ^]]3~ and filePro
doesn't know what to do with it.  You need to set your terminal emulaor (or
console) to send a different sequence.  

How you do this depends on what you're using as a client.

Deleting the -previous- character is usually what one does, although it
could be possible, depending on the client, to send the same sequence sent
by the F2 key.

What client are you using?
