I came across this first in slrn, but as it happens in slsh too,
I believe it might be related to S-Lang:
When I try to kill backwards on the command line, nothing
happens.
This wasn't the case in slrn compiled against S-Lang 1.
$ slsh --version
slsh version 0.7.7-1; S-Lang version: pre2.0.7-56
$ otool -L /usr/local/bin/slsh
/usr/local/bin/slsh:
/usr/local/lib/libslang.2.dylib (compatibility version 2.0.0, current version 2.0.7)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 71.1.4)
This is on MacOS 10.3.9.
I tried in AppleTerminal, Xterm, and GNU Screen in both
terminals.
Bug? Feature? Platform specific? Expected behaviour?

That's odd. I see nothing in the slang-1 code implementing this
feature.

Try pre2.0.7-58
Thanks,

Oh. Perhaps it was some interaction with Slrn. Or my memory is a
noop ;). I'll try and check again some time.

Works fine in Slsh. Thank you! -- Not in Slrn yet, I'll notify
the mailing-list.
