Re: Re: The backspace key can only move forward and cannot delete characters

[高剑平]

hello,

thanks  for your help.

I updated to V8.2, but the problem still exists.

May I ask how to  bound to  `delete-char' instead of `backward-delete-char'. 

thanks.

It sounds like the backspace key outputs a key sequence that is bound to

`delete-char' instead of `backward-delete-char'. There are no key sequences

bound to `delete-char' by default, so it must be happening in one of your

startup files.

 

(And readline-8.0 is over five years old. The current version is 8.2.)
