Description

  1. In mc.keymap I set:

DeleteToWordBegin? = ctrl-backspace

  1. Save and restart mc
  2. Type some words in command line
  3. Press ctrl-backspace
  4. I want delete word to the left, but nothing happens.

hotkey "DeleteToWordBegin? = ctrl-delete" work correct
the same error is in "History = ctrl-h"

So you can't distinguish between ctrl-h and ctrl-backspace in your terminal.

I not use ctrl-h in mc.keymap, ctrl-backspace only.
When I press ctrl-backspace, ctrl-h, backspace - delete symbol left.
When I press backspace after cat - delete symbol left.

Replying to KLex:

I not use ctrl-h in mc.keymap, ctrl-backspace only.

It doesn't matter. mc receives same char sequences for different keys from terminal. mc is unable to do anything in such case.
