I did a fresh install of hamm and slink, including the above, and backspace and delete work fine, but Alt-backspace in an xterm[-debian] just does a backspace (instead of a meta-backspace, as it does (and should) on a text console or in an Emacs window.) Does Alt-backspace work for anyone in an xterm (deleting the previous word on bash input, for example)? This worked fine in Bo and before. -- Pete Harlan [EMAIL PROTECTED]
