+  <p>The <key>Backspace</key> traditionally deletes character before the cursor
+  and the <key>Del</key> deletes characters after the cursor. However, the
+  <key>Backspace</key> can be programmed to delete characters after the cursor
+  also, introducing ambiguity. <app>Terminal</app> can be set to specify which
+  control character or <link xref="overview">escape sequence</link> the delete
+  and backspace keys should generate. You can specify this option on a per-
+  profile basis.</p>
