I've tried it both with the 4.6.1 package that's still shipped with Cygwin, and with 4.7.3 built from source with 'configure --with-screen=ncursesw'. Cygwin's terminfo, which is pretty much unmodified upstream, contains the following relevant entries for xterm (in the xterm+pcc2 fragment): kLFT=\E[1;2D, kRIT=\E[1;2C, kind=\E[1;2B, kri=\E[1;2A, kDN=\E[1;2B, kUP=\E[1;2A, These do match the keycodes being sent. Now the strange thing is that if I remove those entries from terminfo.src and rebuilt the terminfo database, the shift+cursor key combinations work as expected. Similarly, they also work when running with TERM=rxvt, although of course that's a bad idea and other things break. The same happens for combinations with Ctrl and Alt." defect new major Future Releases mc-tty 4.7.3 mwisnicki@… no branch
