Re: emacs question

[Harshdeep Jawanda <hsjawanda@gmail.com>]

Now that this topic has been brought up, it reminds to ask for a
solution to a problem I've been facing for a while.

I have the following entries in my .emacs file:

  (global-set-key [C-down] '"\C-u1\C-v")
  (global-set-key [C-up] '"\C-u1\M-v")

These key combinations are meant to scroll the buffer up or down when
I press the up-arrow or down-arrow, respectively, while holding the
Ctrl key (C-l is not good enough at times).

This works perfectly when I am using Emacs directly on computer I am
sitting at (Win XP, Win 2K and Debian Linux; would it be correct to
say "working at the console"?).

But when I am using emacs over an SSH connection (using putty;
connecting from home/office computer to university computers), this
doesn't work.

Any ideas why?
