	I can no longer move cursor with Ctrl+arrow keys.
	AutoCAD 2006 changed the default behavior of the Ctrl+arrow keyboard keys. Ctrl+Right, Ctrl-Left and Ctrl-Down still nudge the drawing cursor (panning, etc.) but Ctrl+Up now scrolls through the history stack. To restore the pre-2006 functionality, set the `INPUTHISTORYMODE variable to 0.`
