gemini-cli - 💡(How to fix) Fix When I hit backspace, it deletes the whole word instead of just a single character. [1 comments, 1 participants]

TL;DR

The issue might be related to the keyboard protocol or terminal settings, and checking the terminal configuration could help resolve the backspace deletion behavior.

Guidance

• Verify the terminal settings in Windows Terminal to ensure that the backspace key is not configured to delete words instead of characters.
• Check if the issue persists in a different terminal or environment to isolate the problem.
• Investigate the Kitty Keyboard Protocol settings, even though it's listed as Unsupported, to see if there are any related configuration options.

Notes

The issue might be specific to the Windows Terminal or the Kitty Keyboard Protocol, and more information about the terminal configuration would be helpful to provide a more accurate solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Check and adjust the terminal settings to ensure the backspace key behaves as expected, as the issue seems to be environment-specific.
