my terminal (uxterm) is sending ^H on backspace and ^? on ctrl-backspace
i use stty erase \^H to make all programs handle backspace correctly
this program doesn't seem to be doing the same

i'm having issues trying to find proper information on how terminal character codes work but from what i can tell ^H is backspace and ^? is delete
