Re: termcap ? or delete/backspace problem
You need to run "xev" on your system
and exmaine what keycodes are generated when you press on the various
keys. You than use "xmodmap" to assign any keysym you wish to any keycode.
RTFM xmodmap for details.
I suggest you put xmodmap commands in your $HOME/.xinitrc if you always plan
to use the same key assignments.
There's also a nifty program called "xkeycaps" that has a realy nice GUI. However
xev and xmodmap are from the standard MIT X distribution while xkeycaps is a contributed
software that should be installed.
