- bradleyland 16y agoThat's a different bug and is only relevant for Java apps. On a Mac, the backspace key is labeled "delete", and the key associated with the action most people refer to as "delete" is labeled with the delete special character[1]. Apple refers to this as the "forward delete" key. The bug described at the link you provided does not require the shift or arrow keys to be pressed and produces a different control character. 1 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delete_key http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delete_key

- thought_alarm 16y agoFun historical note: The original Mac keyboard had a Backspace key rather than a Delete key. http://www.vectronicsappleworld.com/collection/articlepics/512ke/snap21.jpg http://www.vectronicsappleworld.com/collection/articlepics/5... The current Mac "Delete" key was inherited from the Apple IIgs ADB keyboard, and it stuck around.
