This is correct. ^H also returns the cursor to the upper left with no erase. The machine is an ARM Elan 520 SBC with the console on com2, selected bu jumper. I can boot General Software Embedded DOS on this machine. At the command prompt, it behaves as I would expect, backspace erases the previous character, del deletes the line. I can boot FreeBSD 9.0 (nanoBSD) on the machine. Backspace and delete act properly, the same as GDOS. I was looking for a 32-bit platform with little or no overhead, so I tried FreeDOS, again.
