Here's my first post:
OK, as the first order of the day, how do I get my "delete" key
to really be a delete key? It worked fine under Xdarwin and
the version built by fink.
Solutions that say "stty erase ^H" will be politely ignored.
Solutions that say "if the problem is emacs, just do M-x... " will
also be ignored. Pressing the key labled "delete" should send \x7f to
the application I'm running in an xterm, or should delete (to the
left) a character in an emacs or xemacs window.
I think the solution is some sort of xmodmap, but I just can't seem
to wade through the docs well enough.
And why Apple's xserver build is different from Darwin and Fink's, I
dunno. But right now this is a showstopper preventing me from
ditching Terminal.app, which gets it right.
and the reason I'm bringing it here is that the Fink X11 FAQ needs
to be updated with the answer, whatever it is.
If I get an answer from the x11 list first, I'll forward it here. But
if some smart person here has the answer, please speak.
