Try control-<up arrow>.  Sounds weird, but something suggested it to
me and it worked.

	I also cannot get ^_ to work... any more. We used to use Rainbow
here, but we have recently moved to an all-Windows environment, so we now
use KEAterm 420. Does anybody know why ^_ might not work in this case? 
Thanks!
