The deletechar op just deletes a character; there's lots of extra code
added to make it look like a stream editor.  See DEF DEL in STDKEYS.E.
You could copy this code, or, if you're not redefining the delete key,
you could simply do:
   def c_D = executekey del  -- Execute the code associated w/ the Delete key.
