Hi,
I am using an emacsen (Zile) on a remote machine. The problem is, that
the C-h key (not only in Zile, also in other apps) sends backspace to
the remote machine. I only find information for the case, that when I
press "backspace" the Help pops up, cause Backspace sends C-h. What can
I do, Is it possible somehow to have C-h still as C-h and Backspace
still as backspace?
Greetz,
Christian

Help sends Backspace... Wenn I press C-h the last typed character is

However, the last solution, remapping the keys to C-x h, would work. But
I would like to have C-h as help and backspace as backspace. Is that
possible?

If you're working with GNU Emacs in a terminal emulation, i.e. GNU
Emacs is not running as an X client, the you should teach your
terminal emulation not to interpret C-h as backspace.
GNU Emacs sends \010 to the terminal. The terminal now can choose to
interpret this as a backspace character or as somethings it must not
care.

As mentioned before, I am working with zile, an emacs like editor...
However, should make no difference?

You can substitute with zile.
Wouldn't you like to tell what this zile is? Is it an X client or is
it a command line programme?

No, I don't think you understood what the page says. "The Backspace key
(on most keyboards) generates ASCII code 8. C-h sends the same code"
So, whether you say Backspace sends C-h or C-h sends Backspace, you are
saying the same thing.
This group can only answer questions about Emacs.

Whether it is possible or not is a question for your keyboard and
terminal emulator you might be using. The web page gave instructions
for Unix terminal emulators to make Backspace send C-?. Whether it
works for your terminal emulator or what else works for it, is open.
You may not get an answer to that question in this forum.
