Thanks Mark!

Although you said you could add it to ~/.cshrc, if that was the case you 
wouldn't need the if block?

The syntax was ever so slightly different for bash, eg.

    "\e[1~": beginning-of-line

...but basically it works beautifully.  However, sticking them in 
/etc/profile (the first thing bash looks for) didn't work.  What you 
need to do is specify an INPUTRC in /etc/profile, then add these keys to 
/etc/inputrc (or whatever input file you chose).

Thanks again!
Steve :)
