M-RET ok, C-RET wrong?

[Kepa via Users list for the GNU Emacs text editor <help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org>]

Hello,



I’m experiencing strange behavior when setting a keybinding.

C-RET keybinding does not work for me, and I have had to use C-<return>, although M-RET does work:

This doesn’t work:

(define-key dired-mode-map (kbd "C-RET") 'dired-w32explore)

I receive this message:

C-<return> is undefined


This works, though:

(define-key dired-mode-map (kbd "C-<return>") 'dired-w32explore)

This works too:

(define-key dired-mode-map (kbd "M-RET") 'dired-create-directory)

Best regards
