The message ([left] or [right]) shows that the Shift modifier is lost. However, if you press Shift+[up] or Shift+[down], the message is [S-up] or [S-down]. That seems correct to me. Same thing with read-key-sequence as with read-key-sequence-vector. Is this a bug? I'm using Emacs 20.7.3 on Windows: (i386-*-nt5.1.2600) of Thu Dec 21 2000 on buffy. If I try this on Emacs 21 (21.3.50.1 - i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600 of 2004-04-27 on BERATUNG4), then the Shift modifier is lost on the S-up and S-down also. Is this intended? How can I read the key sequence and obtain the modifier? Thanks, Drew
