Dec 22, 2023 at 18:18 comment added Jonathan Hartley This doesn't work for me at all on zsh in iTerm2 on a recent MacBook Pro. Pressing the keys does nothing. I don't yet know why.

Apr 7, 2021 at 13:39 comment added TesterJeff @Chiron It worked for me as well, BUT i had to disable "Mission Control" under Keyboard->Shortcuts in the System Preferences. Otherwise it'll intercept ctrl+left ctrl+right to switch between Desktops.

Nov 29, 2020 at 1:48 comment added Mike B This works, but why is it necessary? Why isn't this something taken care of via zsh defaults or via common options in the zsh "new user script"?
Jan 22, 2019 at 10:10 comment added Gerrit-K In case anyone wants to use $terminfo instead of the escape sequences: the keys $terminfo[kLFT5] and $terminfo[kRIT5] worked for me
Dec 25, 2016 at 9:48 comment added Léo Léopold Hertz 준영 Confirmed, Goncalo's proposal works also in Debian 8.5. I just wonder why this code is not built-in in .zshrc by default.
