Package: konsole
Version: 1.1 Beta (using KDE 2.9.0 2 (CVS >= 20020104))
Severity: normal
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release) [FreeBSD]
OS:                FreeBSD (i386) release 4.5-RC
OS/Compiler notes: 

Hi,

The current observed behaviour of Konsole is to override stty erase  value setting it to ^? and use ^?
for Backspace key value.
(Konsole keys are set to xterm xfree v4, i.e. default configuration)

While this works OK for most programs, it
doesn't always work for all programs if default OS
stty erase value is ^H.  In fact
the xterm termcap/terminfo is kb=^H 
as it is distributed by XFree.

Konsole should change it's Backspace key to emit current (default)
stty erase code and not vice versa;
this is how things are done by other cross-platform terminal emulators
(e.g. XFree86 xterm).
