[comp.emacs] binding control-arrow-keys to forward/backward-word

You might have problems with this - the dialup line speed might introduce
enough delay between whatever escape sequences are produced by your
cursor keys that Emacs sees several "separate" keys being pressed.

I have this problem, both with Emacs and with other curses based programs
when used over a rather erratic cross-country modem connection.
