On a real VT100 you cannot get the delete key to generate a backspace. He

installation was no problem, but still i
have some questions:
my VT102 doesn´t do backspace, i only
get ^H. i tried the
terminal in ANSI and VT52 mode, no
difference.
Maybe it wants a DEL character instead of backspace (backspace *is* ctrl-H,
shown as ^H or ^h). Change it on the terminal by going into setup, or use
stty on the BSD system to change the delete character (stty del '^h').
