Re: Backspace and delete problem in X/Netscape In-Reply-To: <199505100737.AAA17566@estienne.cs.berkeley.edu> Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: hackers-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have no idea why this works, but it does for some reason. I stumbled upon it by accident. A very quick fix for the Netscape/Emacs backspace/delete problem: Use us.iso.kbd. Modify shift-backspace to be 'bs' instead of 'del'. so the line reads: 014 del bs bs bs del del bs bs O ^^ this changes from del For some odd reason this makes everything work. No I'm not using shift-backspace in netscape. Just plain backspace works like it's supposed to. Go figure.
