ITYM /usr/share/doc/..., right? :) :)


Thanks, this is helpful.  It doesn't say exactly how to change it back
but it does give some information on what changed.

For now I guess I'll try "stty erase ^?" in my shell setup and see how
far that gets me to being usable on non-Linux boxes.  If that doesn't
work well enough, I'll work on changing xterm back to the traditional
behavior.
