What is the proper way to have a destructive backspace key in command
mode that works like the X key in vim version 6.4.6.
That is, the backspace key should move to the left and delete the
character there.
Currently my backspace key backspaces but does not delete the character
to the left. All other programs in my Kubuntu 6.10 work properly.
Insert mode works correctly.
Is it possible to 'alias' the X key to backspace?
I do not want to change any Linix config files except .vimrc
to prevent unwanted side effects.
