Can't remember if mc is using ncurses or slang, but if it's ncurses, check if using the xterm terminfo file bundled with usbnetwork helps. (The one shipped with the Kindle is like a gazillion years old).

(That is, if AjaxTerm does indeed set xterm as TERMINFO, and the browser doesn't mess things up after that. Make sure you have a proper environment set up in your shell too (ie. a proper login shell, not just calling /bin/sh, or source /etc/profile at least).).

Granted, that won't change a thing for the key mapping, but it'll maybe help with the color/ansi escape stuff.
