ctrl-tab mappings work fine in gvim, but fail in console vim with
urxvt. Example:

map <c-tab> <ESC>iFoo

Hitting ctrl-tab prints “Foo” in gvim, but it fails in console vim.

It's me who is clueless here. Frankly I don't know much about key
codes and terminals. I tried to get help on the #vim IRC and the
guys told me to change my terminal, which is not really what I want.

All I want is a working ctrl-tab and ctrl-shift-tab mapping in
console vim. I don't know if I didn't configure my vim or my urxvt
properly. As least, as I understand you, I don't have to change my
terminal and it's possible with urxvt. Maybe you can help me with
the configuration?
