That doesn't look promising. They look like the ANSI codes for regular
cursor keys, i.e. the same as if you pressed it without control. You can
verify this using the CTRL-V trick: see if CTRL-V LEFT gives something
different to CTRL-V CTRL-LEFT. I suspect it won't.
In that case you'll have to investigate options of the terminal program
you are using? Which are you using? The default thing that comes with
Cygwin? I don't know Cygwin well, but does it have some options? See if
it has any to do with terminal emulation, or control keys. Or
investigate trying a different terminal program.
That your CTRL-Qs are eaten isn't a surprise at all if you are using
some program that indeed does emulate a terminal. CTRL-S is probably
eaten too. You can possibly get Vim to see them if you issue
stty -ixon
prior to starting Vim, if indeed that command exists in Cygwin.
