ARG!!! That #%@ backslash
Authored by: googoo on Jun 13, '05 02:30:25PM
The same thing happened to my backslashes! For bash users, the .inputrc file should have the line

"\e[3~": delete-char

and for tcsh users, the .login (or appropriate initialization file) should have the line

bindkey "\e[3~" delete-char

I give up. The e-characters in both of the commands in my previous two comments in this thread should be preceded by backslash characters.

What's the use of a code tag that doesn't preserve code?

Try the code tag in square brackets, as explained in the red text above the text area.
