Hi everybody,
I used Emacs happily for some time now, but - having switched recently
my terminal brought me bad news:
under Konsole evrything was fine, but using Eterm suddenly my backspace
stopped working, resuming the awful "bcksp+bcksp=help" behaviour (but
which evil mind ever devised such folly?).

Under my .emacs file I have as usual the lines
(global-set-key [delete] 'delete-char)
(global-set-key [kp-delete] 'delete-char)

but apparently they're not sufficient...

thanks for any info...

Alessandro Magni

stty erase `^?' – there is also a normal-erase-is-backspace-mode, but  
I think stty is the right solution.

You could also try to invoke 'M-x info-apropos RET backspace RET'.
