Please type x, then hit the delete key, then C-h l. Then you can see
what Emacs sees when you hit the delete key. Suppose you see
... x frumple gargle C-h l
in the lossage buffer. Then do
(global-set-key (kbd "<frumple> <gargle>") 'delete-char)
Alas, it is not obvious when do you have to add the angle brackets
and when you should not add them. As a rule of thumb, if it looks
like a normal character, possibly with modifiers, then do NOT use
<...>. When it looks like a function key, DO use <...>.
Additionally, there are some special keys, that look like function
keys, but aren't. You can recognize them from the upper case. So
RET, TAB, SPC, LFD, DEL are *not* function keys whereas prior, next,
f3, delete, tab *are* function keys.
When you see C-f3, put C-<f3> into the string (<C-f3> will also
work), including the <...>.
