Can anyone tell me the "right" way to do this? I can fix it partly by putting global-set-key commands in my .emacs, but this would have to be duplicated for every user, and it seems like a workaround anyway. Also, I'd like to define the backspace key to "backward-delete-char", can anyone tell me how to do this? I tried doing it with a (global-set-key ... command, but it seemd to ignore it. Thanks for the help! -Morgan
