Dear all,
I hope all is well with you. I need help with the Backspace key please. Some time ago I noticed it has stopped working in vim. When I press Backspace vim (or the terminal emulator) produces the error sound, but no action of erasing a character before the cursor. Would you please help me to debug the problem and reinstate the original Backspace functionality? Thank you and have a good day ahead!
I use the following vim version installed onto a macOS via the MacPorts:
VIM - Vi IMproved 8.1 (2018 May 18, compiled Dec 29 2019 08:37:22)
macOS version
Included patches: 1-2234

Dear all,
I’m sorry to have disturbed you for such a minor thing. I managed to fix it using the following command (https://vim.fandom.com/wiki/Backspace_and_delete_problems):
set backspace=indent,eol,start
Thank you and have a good day ahead!
