How could you switch the functions of control-h and the DELETE key?  I
seem to have gotten C-h to perform backward-delete-char with the
following line added to my .emacs file:

          (define-key global-map "\C-h" 'backward-delete-char)

However, I can't get the DELETE key to act as the help prefix
character.  I don't even know how to reference the DELETE key (like
"\C-h" references control-h).  Ideas?

I am using GNU Emacs 18.52.2 on a Sun 3/something
