One solution is to set the value of TERM to one that vim recognizes

your terminal. I think the ones vim recognizes are:
xterm
nxterm
kterm
mlterm
rxvt
I'm using mlterm, but XTERM is set to 'xterm'. When I set it to 'mlterm', I get
the same behaviour. It works when I run vim from xterm, though, both when TERM
is 'xterm' and 'mlterm'.
Another solution would be to map the sequences your terminal emits
to the <C-Left> and <C-Right> key codes, e.g.,
:cmap <Esc>[1;5D <C-Left>
:cmap <Esc>[1;5C <C-Right>
I tried it but it didn't work - same behaviour :(
Also, I suppose there would be no way to make that work with standard
readline? :help readline just brings up stuff about the readline.vim syntax
file.
Do you mean have Ctrl-Left and Ctrl-Right work at the shell prompt
or do you mean have vim use readline? If you mean the latter, then
no. For the former, see
The former. Oh well :)
