But all promoting or demoting commands do not work as advertised.
I get i.e. ESC S-right undefined etc.
Alt-S-right seems to work for me while Esc-S-right just beeps.
Perhaps that and this excerpt from emacs info will help to clear things up?
Another Emacs character-set extension is additional modifier bits.
Only one modifier bit is commonly used; it is called Meta. Every
character has a Meta variant; examples include `Meta-a' (normally
written `M-a', for short), `M-A' (not the same character as `M-a', but
those two characters normally have the same meaning in Emacs),
`M-RET', and `M-C-a'. For reasons of tradition, we usually write
`C-M-a' rather than `M-C-a'; logically speaking, the order in which the
modifier keys CTRL and META are mentioned does not matter.
Some terminals have a META key, and allow you to type Meta
characters by holding this key down. Thus, `Meta-a' is typed by
holding down META and pressing `a'. The META key works much like
the SHIFT key. Such a key is not always labeled META, however, as
this function is often a special option for a key with some other
primary purpose. Sometimes it is labeled ALT or EDIT; on a Sun
keyboard, it may have a diamond on it.
If there is no META key, you can still type Meta characters using
two-character sequences starting with ESC. Thus, you can enter `M-a'
by typing `ESC a'. You can enter `C-M-a' by typing `ESC C-a'.
ESC is allowed on terminals with META keys, too, in case you have
formed a habit of using it.
