I'm having a problem getting my keybinding right on OWR2 on a SS1.
I want the backspace and delete key to both generate a delete
under all circumstances. 

Initially xmodmap -pk tells me:

	 50         0xff08 (BackSpace)

then after I do a 

	xmodmap -e "keysym  BackSpace = Delete"

it becomes:

	 50         0xffff (Delete)

Which looks correct. However, when I run a terminal oriented
program I get ^H when I hit the backspace key. Its easy to miss
this since anything xview based treats BS and DEL the same
anyway.

Any ideas?

By the way is there a program around that prints out keycodes
while you press keys?
