How should we guess the problem if you don't tell us in what way it didn't work (i.e. what did it do)? Stefan PS: Given your description, the problem is not in global-set-key but in the description of how your twerminal encodes the C-right operation. I.e. any fix will be specific to your terminal, so you have to tell us which it is. Also try to hit C-right and then C-h l and tell us what was the result, this will tell us what escape sequence was generated by your terminal. Do that as well with just `right C-h l' so we can compare, to make sure that the terminal distinguishes between the two. Most likely it doesn't and there's nothing that Emacs can do until you fix your terminal.
