- pmontra 10y agoYeah, crazy. It's Fn-Backspace to delete. Uncomfortable and no wonder almost no Mac user know about it. Maybe a reason for the gain in popularity of vim? It's X (upcase) to delete forward there.
- insulanian 10y agoI was worried about the keyboard when I was planning to buy a Mac, but it took no time to get used to it and actually like it so much that I now think that having less keys is actually better. Having to press `fn` key in addition to backspace key is not a big deal at all, and I like more `fn` in combination with cursor keys than separate PgUp/PgDn/Home/End keys.
