I've got my keyboard mapped to send DEL as the erase character. This doesn't cause any problems and behaves the way I want it to. However, when I use Linux Netscrape, it doesn't delete backwards, only the character the cursor is under. It looks as though Linux's version has ^H hardcoded as the backspace/erase character. I know I could use xmodmap to swith the keys around. However, this isn't a good solution because while it solve the problems for Netscape, it changes around the rest of my setup. So, does anyone out there know of a way I can change this around without me haveing to muck up the rest of my setup? Thanks in advance. --Jerry 8) Jerry Alexandratos % - % "Nothing inhabits my (8 8) alexandr@louie.udel.edu % - % thoughts, and oblivion (8 8) darkstar@strauss.udel.edu % - % drives my desires." (8
