My primary word processor is XyWrite, which runs fairly well under Dosemu for the most part. * In WyWrite I am used to using Alt-Backspace (to delete the previous word) -- for so long, it's now second nature. Searching "dosemu alt-backspace" keeps yielding references to "ctrl-alt-backspace" which isn't what I want. Finally I found that someone says "Alt-Backspace and Ctrl-Insert... are not available for the BIOS (at least in DOSemu!)" Is this true, and if so, is there any chance a future DOSemu (or Freedos) will overcome this? * I'd also like to remap some of the default Linux/Dosemu keys -- for example, Alt-F2 is very useful in Ubuntu for running a command, but while in Dosemu I'd prefer to let XyWrite handle it. Is this possible? -Rafe Tennenbaum
