Refering to your question about backspace and delete keys, I am willing to
share my experiences.
Insert a line in your .login file that reads:
stty erase = '^H' #This line means set the Delete key as ASCII character erase
stty werase = '^?' #Set the Backspace key as ASCII word erase
#Or whichever way you prefer it
Then insert these lines in your .defaults file (or using defaultsedit)
/Text/Edit-back_word "/b" #This line sets the backspace key as word kill.
#And so forth, did I solve your problem?
I am sure you can find your way from here on. Mail me for further
questions.
