[Konsole-devel] Backspace behaves oddly.

[Peter Hutnick]

I think this is a bit of a re-hash, but I can't get the backspace to work the 
way I expect in konsole.

I found the messages:
http://lists.kde.org/?l=konsole-devel&m=101171648412589&w=2 and 
http://lists.kde.org/?l=konsole-devel&m=100405651529835&w=2 which pretty much 
sum the situation up.

Can someone either explain how to make it work, or explain why this isn't a 
bug (which seems to be the position of the developers).  Or both . . .

The one thing that I have to add is that I copied linux.keytab to nano.keytab 
and played with the settings a bit.  I couldn't find any settings that worked 
as expected with nano.  Out of desperation I set 'key Backspace : "x^H"' 
which is clearly wrong.  When I did this the konsole would irrevocably hang 
when I hit the "Settings" button.  Probably not the ideal response to a bogus 
config file.

Thanks!
