I am sure there is a simple answer to this question... I just haven't found it
yet. When I run Netscape or when I am at the shell (bash), I have found that
Backspace and Delete work in different ways. For instance, if I want to
correct a typo in a URL under Netscape, I have to use the mouse or the back
arrow key to place the cursor before the error then use Backspace or Delete to
'delete' the error and retype. If I try to use backspace to work my way back
and delete the error simultaneously, Backspace just acts like the delete key
and gets rid of everything to the right of the cursor. Is there a config file
I should edit somewhere to control the default behaviour of Backspace?
Similarly, at a shell if I try to use the Delete key to delete characters to
the right of the cursor, I just get a beep and a tilde is typed at the cursor.
Once, again I assume that this is in a config file??? (slap me if I'm wrong)
