Re: Need backspace , delete , arrows , home and end key to work in Hp-UX 11.11 version
If you want this functionality, install the bash shell. Whatever you do, do *NOT* make root's default login shell as defined in '/etc/passwd' anything other than '/sbin/sh'.
As root, you can still dynamically invoke the bash shell if you choose.
You can fetch a 'bash' binary here:
http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Shells/bash-4.1.007/
Be sure to install all of the runtime dependencies too!

OK, then you could (if you like) make *your* default login shell. You will still need to install 'bash' as I noted.

Solution---------
# backspace: if it does not work, comment the first line
# and uncomment the 2nd
stty erase ^?
# stty erase ^H
# load the rest of shell settings
. $HOME/.kshenvironment
# make sure any child shells will use them too
export ENV=$HOME/.kshenvironment
---------
Then create the .kshenvironment file and write this into it:
---------
# define hpterm cursor keys
alias -x _A=$(echo '\020')
alias -x _B=$(echo '\016')
alias -x _D=$(echo '\002')
alias -x _C=$(echo '\006')
# define vt100 normal (non-application) cursor keys
alias -x __A=$(echo '\020')
alias -x __B=$(echo '\016')
alias -x __D=$(echo '\002')
alias -x __C=$(echo '\006')
# define Home and End for typical vt100 emulations
alias -x __H=$(echo '\001')
alias -x __F=$(echo '\005')
# enable history browsing and command line editing with arrow keys
set -o emacs
---------
This should give you a working backspace, arrows, Home and End keys. I don't remeber whether the Delete key functionality is included in "set -o emacs" or not.

Re: Need backspace , delete , arrows , home and end key to work in Hp-UX 11.11 version
stty erase ^?
and backspace does not work, try this instead:
stty erase ^H
(The correct setting depends on how your terminal/emulator is configured.)
To make Ctrl+C (and a few others) to work, add this command to your .profile:
stty intr ^C kill ^U susp ^Z
You can use the "stty -a" command to view the current settings.

Re: Need backspace , delete , arrows , home and end key to work in Hp-UX 11.11 version
stty erase (control v)(backspace)
where 'control v' is you holding down the control key and hitting the 'v' character at the same time and backspace is the actual backspace key (the hit enter). After this is done type something and hit the backspace key. If this works add the line to your .kshrc file.
