Make the forward delete key work in Terminal
Under bash, the CTRL-d key functions as DELETE (when there are characters on the line) and as END-OF-FILE (when there are no other characters). The problem is that if you delete all of the characters, you will close that shell.

Not in my bash it doesn't. To get characters on the line, you have to type something. To get characters in front of the cursor, you have to exit vi insert mode by pressing escape. You then have to move back a few characters. Then when I type Control-D, it enters the command and doesn't delete anything.

The best solution in this vein that I've worked out is to use the key combination space, control-T, backspace, backspace. That inserts a space, transposes the space and the next character while moving the cursor forward, then two backspaces delete the two. When you're at the end of a line, this doesn't produce a bell sound/flash like control-F, control-H does. |
