: I'm trying to use the built-in command bind to bind ^? (ie, del)

: bind the key successfully in .bashrc but somehow the effect is
: gone when .bashrc has been processed. Any idea why?
: 
Are we talking XWindow or a VC here? On my VCs, at least, the
'delete' key produces a literal of '^[[3~'. Also note that the
bindings you do for the shell mightn't work for programs the shell
calls.
