Hello,
Currently I am working on some simple shell programming utilities that mimic capabilities of editors. Most everything I want is working, and I have standard input set to non canonical mode. I am able to successfully trap the backspace and delete key, and after that I want to be able to delete a character from the screen. I am achieving this by printf("\b"), however on some terminals this only seems to perform a backspace, and leaves the previously printed character on the screen. I am able to get around this with printf("\b \b"), however I was wondering if there is a better way to do this?
