make backspace configurable #83

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Currently the backspace key seems to be hardcoded to Ctrl-h regardless
of the terminal emulation setting. It would be great if this could be
configurable between Ctrl-h (0x08) and DEL (0x7f).

This feature would be incredibly useful for Emacs users for whom C-h is (as per
default) bound to "help". As is, the inability to use backspace in Emacs is 
something
of a hindrance.

My guess is that this will come with the configurable keymap
support. In the meanwhile, here is the patch I use.

until this is settled, emacs users may find 'normal-erase-is-backspace-mode' 
useful.
