I'm actually using bash, but I would prefer something for sh as its installed as standard. Something like: $ keyset -s del=rdel I can't belive there is no way of setting this. Or if there is the documentation isn't throwing itself at me. stty seems like the right command, but what is it you put in? stty erase ^D does absolutely nothing at all, and the man page is extremely unhelpful. -- W.
