Bellow is a fuller cygwin termcap entry. You can also use rxvt (which
is an xterm emulation), it is included with the Cygwin net installer.

I think that the terminal type for the Debian console is `linux' (it
is for the RedHat distribution).  

Of these 3 terminal only `rxvt' generate different keys for the shifted
key (up is \e[A and S-up is \e[a). The termcap entry has the definition
of the up key only. The emacs distributed xterm.el has only the `up' 
key definition but you can define the shifted up like this:
    (define-key function-key-map "\e[a" [S-up])

Ehud.
