>Description:
(with TERM=vt100) Seems that the delete key backspaces instead of deleting the character in front of the curser... The rest of the keys in that area (insert, home, end, page up and page down) don't seem to work as they should either. In vt220 I believe page up and page down work correctly...
These broken keys make it hard to use vi/vim.
I'm new to NetBSD, my apologies if this is the default behavior, however if it is, why stick with something unintuitive like that as the default?
>How-To-Repeat:
Try pressing any of those keys...
>Fix:
VT220 seems to fix page-up and page-down, not sure on the rest.
