   Does C-space work on ttys?

To correct my previous answer: strictly speaking no, but
_in practice_, yes.

>From `(emacs)Setting Mark':

   There is no such character as `C-<SPC>' in ASCII; when you type
<SPC> while holding down <CTRL> on a text terminal, what you get is the
character `C-@'.  This key is also bound to `set-mark-command'-so
unless you are unlucky enough to have a text terminal where typing
`C-<SPC>' does not produce `C-@', you might as well think of this
character as `C-<SPC>'.

Sincerely,

Luc.
