Although ESC can usually be used as a synonym for Meta, this is not
always true. In particular, you can't combine ESC with shifted arrow
keys. You have to use Meta-Shift-right (all keys at once), where Meta
may actually be labelled as Alt or (heavens forbid) the Windows key on
your keyboard.

And the S in <S-right> is not the letter "S", it is the shift key...

I'm assuming you are running emacs graphically, not inside a terminal.

Hope this helps

Will
