FreeBSD Backspace and Delete keys
 
THis is driving me bonkers now, I've read loads of articals and HOW-TO's on this, but i cant get my delete key to behave as a delete key, it just sits as backspace.

doing ctrl+v del produces the code ^?

joel@apollo$ bind -p | grep del
"\C-h": backward-delete-char
"\C-?": backward-delete-char
"\C-d": delete-char
# delete-char-or-list (not bound)
"\M-\\": delete-horizontal-space

its mapped to backspace and i cant change it :(

/etc/inputrc:
"\C-?": delete-char

does nothing

logitech keyboard, anyone any ideas?

Did you run the command from your bash starup file?
export INPUTRC=/etc/inputrc
