Hi,

if my memory isn't totally wrong, on the console (ttyE0) the backspace key
used to produce ^H while the delete key produced ^?.

In 1.5.3, to which I upgraded yet, both produce ^?, which makes it
impossible to distinguish which one was pressed. I used that to have
different actions in zsh.

How can I get the old behaviour back?

Bye, Chris
