No need to do that - just add this (global-set-key [delete] 'delete-char) to your .emacs. I think I'll add it to the global one, too. Actually, we already do that in the default $HOME/.emacs in 6.2 I wouldn't rely on the configuation of ~/.emacs; it isn't always set up by Red Hat (or even any Linux distribution for that matter). In my case, user directories are NFS mounted, based on a Solaris setup. This is probably not terribly unusual in the corporate world. As long as it works with any ~/.emacs (or even with no ~/.emacs), then there's no problem (regardless of which of the Eighty Million Alternate Configuration Strategies you choose). |
