Or, another possible workaround, if you cannot set the terminal to utf-8 mode
is to make an attempt to set it to non-utf8 mode, and then workaround all these
stuffs assuming non-utf8 mode. That is, when I press backspace, only move one
character to the left on the screen, but pretend to the real terminal driver
that backspace was hit more times. This solution, however, I'm afraid might
lead to unpredictable problems over remote ssh or telnet connections, so I'd
not recommend this for systems that natively support utf8 input in their tty
drivers, such as linux 2.6.
