BS/DEL change on TTY's

Something looks mightily wrong with BS/DEL on TTY's. I am working on a "normal" TTY which emits ?\177 for key-above-enter, and `stty erase' is ^?. However, in XEmacs, pressing `C-h c DEL' produces: BS runs the command delete-backward-char WTF? Now I tried `C-q DEL', and I got ^H inserted in the buffer! I tried `C-q C-h' and it also inserts C-h. In XEmacs 20.3, the same inserts ^H and ^? respectively. While this change is guided with good intentions, I believe it obfuscates the distinction between C-h and C-? further, and it should be rethought before the release. To sum it up, I believe pressing `C-q DEL' should result with C-?, not C-h being inserted to the buffer. Compare with `C-q up' on TTY's. -- Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic(a)srce.hr&gt; | Student at FER Zagreb, Croatia --------------------------------+-------------------------------- "Listen, kid, we're all in it together!" -- Harry Tuttle in _Brazil_
