xterms terminfo entry for kbs on my system says ^? which is fine, that
is what xterm emits and what stty is set to.
screens terminfo entry for kbs is ^H, which is also fine and is what
stty is set to. however, screen does not seem to be translating the
'host' kbs of ^? to the screen kbs of ^H like it should be when run
inside of xterm.
now, it doesn't really matter whether backspace is ^? or ^H, but what is
important is that what is generated matches the terminfo entry of
whatever it sets TERM to which screen does not seem to be doing.
does anyone know of a workaround until screen is fixed?
