hmmm... OSX is a bit weird on the backspace and delete, but this ncurses app doesn't seem to make any sense out of it. I think we should close this bug using CANTFIX or similar.

The problem looks to me as if MacOSX Terminal.app is another way braindead than the program expects. Contrary to my normal shell (where "backspace" works, but "delete" doesn't work). But I am not about to look for a shell / terminal application where it works correctly. > I think we should close this bug using CANTFIX or similar.

the various stty fixes don't work. I finally managed to get my delete key working properly in both my shell and Vim by using a bindkey sequence for the character sent for delete: ^[[3~ Surpise, surprise, this character is even a standard too... But then again, it took me three nights to finally get the delete, home/end pgup/pgdn keys to do what they do under linux in my Terminal.app...
