Thanks.  Those are my favorites too.  :)

Ah...  Well, when you're using older software, you can't expect
all the latest things to work.  :)  I'm surprised it works at all
on Windows.

When you press M-V <Tab> M-V <Ctrl+Tab>, you will see that both
keystrokes produce the exact same key code (a TAB character, ^I),
so it is impossible for nano to distinguish the two.

When you press M-V <Shift+Ctrl+Tab>, you will see it produces a
distinct key code, but that is of little use when <Ctrl+Tab>
cannot be recognized.

On most emulators you can use also <Alt+Left/Right> to switch
between buffers.
