Yes, please do so! The X client GNU Emacs describes this key as: DEL  
(translated from <backspace>). With modifiers it's:
M-DEL (translated from <M-backspace>)
<C-backspace> runs the command backward-kill-word

fn-delete is described as: <delete> runs the command delete-char.  
With modifiers it's:
M-DEL (translated from <M-backspace>)
<C-delete> runs the command kill-word


When looking at Apple's "virtual keyboard" KeyboardViewer this key  
has an X on it -- isn't this rubout/delete and not backspace?

(I am using a German PowerBook.)

To most people solutions mean finding the answers. But to chemists  
solutions
are things that are still all mixed up.
