I think we should add something to that. The whole proposal
refers only to the Linux console and X; but it says nothing about some
other terminals commonly used in Debian; at least, I also use
`screen', `emacs' (in *shell* mode), and `ytalk' (esc-s gives you a
shell).
Well, there may be others, but the question is: should I, as
the current maintainer of `screen', change its behaviour respecting
`<--'? It currently generates `^H', but it's very easy to change
that. Ian's current proposal isn't very clear on that. (BTW: I
think I should change it).
