Bug Description
Out of Byobu, holding ctrl + lift or right allows to to jump the cursor per word. But in Byobu it outputs '5C' to the console instead of jumping to the end of the word.

Hello,
Thanks for the report.
Unfortunately, I'm not able to reproduce this behavior on the latest version of Byobu.
From a bash shell prompt, I can type something like:
kirkland@x200:~$ one two three four five
And use ctrl-<left> and ctrl-<right> and move back and forth among the words.
A few questions for you:
1) What version of byobu are you running? byobu -v
2) Can you start from a pure, default byobu environment? Move your ~/.screenrc and ~/.byobu out of the way, and then launch 'byobu'. You should then have a clean, default configuration. Now try those keys.
