- BuckyBeaver 4y agoThanks, but I'll just use a proper keyboard. Interesting that even Apple chose the D key for "delete" and the action is "forward-delete" and not Backspace, though.
- vmladenov 4y ago^D is from emacs, not Apple. macOS just implements emacs shortcuts in input fields, quite a handy feature.
- BuckyBeaver 4y agoGreat, that's even better. The meaning of "Delete" as "forward delete" predates Apple's ignorance on the matter.
