I find myself swayed by the arguments here. I withdraw my endorsement and switch to the "backspace should be ^H" camp. HOWEVER. I would like to do so with the following stipulation: We make it a priority of the 2.1 installation that SOME way of selecting from canned keymaps (including a <bs>/<del> and <clock>/<lctrl> swapped version of the standard US keyboard) be provided at installation time, and that this keymap also having the option of becoming the new *default* (it could be placed in /etc/rc.local automatically). I will try to work something up. Any suggestions on *squeezing* the data files in question would also be happily accepted. Jordan
