That is, type "stty erase " then press the key that you would LIKE to
cause a backspace.  It will usually generate the ^? or ^H for you.

A 'friend' of mine always got a kick out of running "stty erase t" on my
machines.  You couldn't exiT, you could logouT, and you couldn't run
"sTTy" to fix it, you couldn't shuTdown, halT, or reseT...  Ah, those
were the days...
