Hi,
When I run emacs as `emacs -nw' I have noticed that the keyboard
behaves strangely; e.g. `C-tab' is bound to `tab' and `C-up' is bound
to `ESC O'. What's happening?
Regards,
August

1. The terminal is sending the same key code for C-tab as for tab,
so Emacs can't distinguish them.
2. The terminal sends an escape sequence for up, which Emacs decodes
via function-key-map. The terminal probably sends the same escape
sequence for C-up as for up.
