Thanks. Yeah, I do notice that "od -c" yields different results as you said. When running in an xterm, "od -c" returns different codes for TAB and SHIFT-TAB. As you said, the standard Windows console window returns the same key code for the two keystrokes in "od –c". Am I correct that getting this working (in the standard Windows console) is not going to be possible? Is there anyway way with I could somehow define a key assignment where it looks to see whether the SHIFT key is pressed whenever a TAB keycode occurs?
