I've got my keyboard mapped to send DEL as the erase character. This
doesn't cause any problems and behaves the way I want it to. However,
when I use Linux Netscrape, it doesn't delete backwards, only the
character the cursor is under.
It looks as though Linux's version has ^H hardcoded as the
backspace/erase character. I know I could use xmodmap to swith the
keys around. However, this isn't a good solution because while it
solve the problems for Netscape, it changes around the rest of my
setup.
So, does anyone out there know of a way I can change this around
without me haveing to muck up the rest of my setup?
Thanks in advance.
