<DEL> revisited

From: Ethan A M. <sf...@us...> - 2011-04-12 23:50:13

New bug report on the tracker:
   #3285571
   Win32 binary on Windows 7 64-bit
   crash program whenever hit "del" key at on new command line

I seem to recall recent discussion that something, somewhere,
was mis-interpreting <del> as ^D.    Where was that?
Has it already been fixed?

Right here on the mailing list, unless memory fails me badly.

I believe we concluded that this was working as designed, i.e. nothing 
broken, thus nothing to fix.

You added a bit to the docs about Ctrl-D yourself (gnuplot.doc, 2011-03-20).
