Backspace problems in XTerm
Dear Mutt users,
Even after hours of Googling, I am unable to get this to work. So,
here's the deal:
1. Everything's fine, except that in the pager, if I press backspace,
it says key not bound. If I press Ctrl+H, it works as expected.
2. All other applications work fine; emacs -nw, vim etc.
3. So, in Mutt, I wish to bind my previous-line to Ctrl+H in the
pager. However, when I add bind \008 to previous-line, it still
doesn't work. When doing a "?", the binding displays as "^H" all
right, but below, it says <BackSpace> again, and my binding has no
effect.
Can you suggest an effective workaround? Using XTerm's "Backarrow Key"
fixes this, but it breaks all other apps, like emacs -nw, break.
Thanks!
Kumar
