Description

Returns (first syntax line) or specifies (second syntax line) what is transmitted to the host when the user press the Backspace key. On the VT terminal keyboard the backarrow key is configurable: it can send either a delete (ASCII 127) or a backspace (ASCII 8) character. In Reflection, use this property to configure Backspace in the same manner.

This property affects Reflection for HP only in VT emulation mode.

Values

In Reflection for HP, the default is rcDeleteKey.

In Reflection for UNIX and OpenVMS and Reflection for ReGIS Graphics, the default depends on whether you have selected UNIX or OpenVMS defaults. See HostForDefaultSettings for details.

rcDeleteKey The Delete character is transmitted when the user presses the Backspace key.

rcBackspaceKey The Backspace character is transmitted when the user presses the Backspace key.
