Re: Backspace in SCO mode

Lars,

I'm sorry the only workaround at this point is a ^H macro. The
"Backspace is ^H" should be doing it's job as expected. I'll check
into it though testing a SCO terminal is difficult for me as I don't
have one readily available.

I've got a fix in the works for the sleep issue in iSSH and it'll be
resolved in the next release, which I will be releasing to Apple
within the next couple of weeks.
