does anyone know how to set vi to recognise the delete key in Eterm. I've noticed that certain applications have a config files within the Eterm theme directory but they are still reliant upon the configuration options available..

I've also tried using different terms (--term-name=[xterm|rxvt]) and I've had no luck there either

I've looked through all the man pages and I've had a quick keyword search through the MAIN config file for Eterm, no look in finding this out.

TIA

Do you check your .Xdefaults file and see if the delete mode was set to 'true'? What does the DEL key produce when pressed? Anything like "^?" ? In that case you could do a quick 'stty erase ^?',
