AFter loading this, it does not work for me.  I suspect something is
blocking it somehow.  All I see is a cursor move left or right.

Can you think of anything that could do that?

These are the control sequences I see by pressing (on a terminal
cmdline):

 Ctrl-v left arrow: ^[[D
Ctrl-v right arrow: ^[[C

Viewing lossage in emacs shows: <left> <right>
