Well, I thought I had. But I just tried it, and it worked. Checking
my bash history, yes I did run vim in gnome-terminal; the plot
thickens.
If I run vim, and type your
:set t_kb="\x7F"
then try
:set t_kb
I get E518. The set does not do the double quoted string thing, so I
effectively unset it as if I'd typed
:set t_kb=
and it became an undefined option. Experimenting, one can set any
option of the form t_xy for any x and y that I tried, including non-
printable characters. F. ex.
:set t_^A^B=tony
and unset them by setting them empty. So there's a bunch of special
handling for terminal options. Whether it's worth documenting, I'm
not sure, though your original use seems a valid one.
Regards, John
