cool.  that's what i want.  i should have it next time i logout and login
again (come on netscape, do your stuff!   *BOOM*)


will we still need the following in /etc/X11/Xresources or ~/.Xdefault for
netscape and other motif apps?

    ! Fix Motif client handling of backspace/delete
    !
    *XmText.translations: #override\n\
          <Key>osfDelete: delete-previous-character()
    *XmTextField.translations: #override\n\
          <Key>osfDelete: delete-previous-character()
