Re: emacs -nw keypad, tpu-edt.el, and C-h

Right. I forgot about that. Presumably there's no linux standard that says Alt-Backspace should be translated to ^H. If there were such a standard, then Alt-Backspace would never work as backward-kill-word in emacs under linux. So, again, I would vote for following the linux standard if there is one, and leaving Alt-Backspace alone otherwise.
