Delete key

[Seth]

Thanks Ken.

I set the P1 entry to P1=\E[3~ and it works. Set the PFINSERTMODE=ON, and
that works. Viola! 29 years of this. Noticed that this was new to 5.0.

Noticed that F2 now does not delete any longer but appears to insert an
EscB? Is this supposed to do this? Is this a bug? Are there other changes
that PFINSERTMODE=ON makes?

Thanks
Seth
