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?
