Strange. For me, running 'nano --ignore -d', the <Delete> and <Backspace>
keys work normally, on Linux console, on xterm, on rxvt, on urxvt, and on
xfce4-terminal. :| (Only when I also use -K do <Del> and <Bsp> start to
do the same thing: delete rightward.) What are your settings in the
Compatibility tab of xfce4-terminal? In mine, what <Del> and <Bsp> generate
are both set to "Automatic".
And on all five terminals, doing 'infocmp | grep -e kbs -e kdc' shows:
kbs=^? and kdch1=\E[3~
So the Backspace key always produces ASCII DEL, and the Delete key
always the escape sequence "Esc [ 3 ~".
