Backspace in replace mode does not work to like I expect #34

Closed vi closed 11 years ago

vi commented 12 years ago
  1. Switch to replace mode
  2. Type something over the existing text
  3. Press backspace several times

What should happen: Preferred: Old text gets restored and cursor moves back (like in Vim) Not preferred: Spaces appear and cursor moves back (like in Emacs)

What happens: Backspace works just like in insert mode, deleting character and shifting the rest of string left.

Ctrl+Z already exists or restoring text. I think 'not preferred' behaviour is more intuitive. Done
