Thank you for explaining where this "delete-right" brain damage comes from. Now... how do we fix programs suffering from this "delete-right" brain damage so that the "Delete" key does the correct "delete-left" function? I'm thinking mainly of web browsers like links -g and mozilla. (On an X terminal talking via Ethernet, presumably no wscons involved.) I do not want a delete-right. Micros**t can fly a kite. I do not need a penguin pram. I do not want it, Sam I am.
