Finch without arrow keys working


my $TERM variable used to be set to "rxvt-unicode" by default.
i use finch command to login some potocol, but my arrow keys do not work. when using this command:
Code:
export TERM=screen; finch
to launch finch consoleui, arrow keys work fine.
anybody can tell me what differeces between setting TERM to screen and other variables?

thanks. and i'm sorry for my pool english.
