Hi,
    Could someone help me please to solve the following problems in 
    Demacs? I use it on a 386 PC.

(1) How to stop beeping? Based on the Emacs-FAQ, I tried to insert this
    line into termcap file   " :vb=:"   and set variable "visible-bell" t
    without any effect.
(2) How can I bind "delete-backward-char" to BackSpace (BackArrow?) key?
    Now Ctrl-BackSpace calls this function. I think, normally "help" is 
    assigned to the BackSpace key in Demacs, but bobcat swaps it.
(3) Is there any "better" dired than v.4.53 (if I remember well) for
    Demacs and how to install it? This was included in Demacs distribution 
    package.

Let me note that I have no experinece with lisp programming...
Thank you very much for your time.      --Jozsef--
