OK, here's what you need... I've been using it since yesterday,
and everything feels right.

my ~/.Xmodmap:

  keycode 59 = Delete

my ~/.Xresources:

  xterm*.deleteIsDEL: true
  xterm*.backarrowKey: false
  xterm*.ttyModes: erase ^?

my ~/.xinitrc:

    xrdb -load $HOME/.Xresources
    xmodmap $HOME/.Xmodmap

    xterm -sb -rightbar -geometry 80x48 &
    exec quartz-wm


When I press "delete" in an xterm, it deletes a character to the left.
When I ssh from there, it sends a \x7f to the remote process when
I press delete.  When I invoke a local X app like Emacs or XEmacs,
pressing delete deletes one character to the left.

So, that's what needs to go into the Fink X11 FAQ: "How to have
the delete key in Apple X11 work like Xdarwin".  Can someone
who has FAQ authority please copy this there?
