You mean "TAB alone". Anyway, ESC is a real character, Ctrl is just a key-modifier, it doesn't produce a key on its own. With most other characters the Ctrl-modifier produces a different character ... just not with TAB. At least normally. Some environments (like X-windows and some terminal emus) do, but the standard text-terminal does not Ctrl-modify TAB, so you end up with the same "normal" TAB. On some systems Shift-TAB works, but you'd need to capture the raw ESC-sequence produced by it, there is no mutt-code for it. -- © Rado S. -- You must provide YOUR effort for your goal!
