hey, i've been an Emacs user for like, 3 years and when i still had a
copy of Linux around (about a year ago) i started playing around with
the Vim editor.  i was just wondering if anyone would happen to know how
to get the Backspace key to actualy go back a space so i don't have to
get RSI reaching for the Delete key.  Emacs is just too slow to start
and i need somthing more pure and fast.
