When I'm in 'info' and try to scroll backward a page using the backspace key, I get *Info Help* instead. Since I also get help when I hit C-h, I suspect my backspace maps to C-h instead of DEL. (FWIW using the delete key (<delete>) gets the response
> Unknown command (~). ) Note also that I get this behavior running 'info' from either bash or cmd. How can I remap my backspace key in/for 'info'? Alternatively, how can I otherwise get the desired DEL behavior? Apologies if this is a FAQ (I know it is for Emacs, where I know how to fix it), but I didn't see anything relevant in info.info, the Cygwin FAQ, the Cygwin User's Guide, or the 'cygwin' list archives. Also, please reply to me as well as the list: I tried to subscribe, and got the happy page saying "your request has been received, and we'll send you a confirmation post shortly" but I haven't received the email yet.
