But Esc-C is the VT52-code for cursor-right, so there might be a clash.

M- means Alt (=Meta), so I don't think so.

Meta is Escape in Emacs-speak. And when I type Esc-C I see:

 [ Constant cursor position display enabled ]

However, nano seems to use ncurses, so you need the terminfo terminal database. On my home cooked system, it is in /usr/lib/terminfo.

You can test this by setting TERM to something else, or renaming the terminfo-entry. I have it in /usr/share/terminfo.

ncurses looks at different places anyway.
