0008962: PRINT_MODE:TEXT Shift-key combinations do not work
The shift-arrow-key combinations do not work but should be able to. Ncurses supports codes for most of the shift-key combinations.

This appears to be a problem with Dwarf Fortress only reading one byte of information, when two bytes are needed for these keys.
1. Launch Dwarf Fortress using PRINT_MODE:TEXT
2. Start fortress mode and attempt to use shift-arrow-key combinations
Unfortunately, [shift-enter] is indistinguishable from [enter] in ncurses.
No tags attached.
