Hi Roberto, well, the information got updated to the latest stable release, and IMHO the system default only matters for * people using st from their repositories (which is the latest stable, 0.4.1), so the def. matches now * people using openbsd, which relies entirely on entries in the terminfo db People compiling from git on non-openbsd systems should always get the latest st.info. If you want to change the behaviour of backspace, do it and push for a new stable release, then we can ask upstream again to incorporate these changes :) Best, Nils
