backspace at TCL at 'jsh' prompt

I'm working on configuring and testing a new server running jBASE 5.8.6
At the 'jsh' the backpsace key will not backup and erase.
Does anyone know an easy way to change this?

Thanks

Jim,
This is normally a function of your terminal emulator than anything related to jBASE.

In AccuTerm, for instance, you can program the keyboard to send whatever character you wish for the backspace key.

Jim,
Just in case, on the jBASE side, you should make sure that TERM is set correctly, and, if you dig that deep, also your terminfo for that terminal type:

Jim,  I assume this is Linux.  You can type stty -a and see what erase is set to.   it is probably ^h which is Ctrl-H or ^? which is the delete key.   You can change that with stty erase ^h to change to Ctrl-H or stty erase ^? to change to delete key or as Mike stated, you can change accuterm to match what it already is.  If you change it with stty, you will need to add that to your .profile.
