Hi, I have finally managed to solve the problem with the DEL key. I have created a file .inputrc in my home directory. I have added these two lines: RUBOUT: backward-delete-char DEL: delete-char I guess these two lines tell readline to use these two keys in the proper manner while running bash. And thats it. My DEL and backspace keys are working like they should. I must thank all you guys who replied for providing me with valuable pointers as to how to solve the problem. Thank you very much guys.
