Problem Description:
Urgency: standard

General Description:
Backspace/delete keys do not appear to work in module customization GUI text boxes on Solaris 5.6.


Solution 1:

This behavior appears to be associated with improper setup of the XKeysymDB environment variable. This variable should point to the location of the XKeysymDB file, which is usually,

   $XILINX/bin/<platform


Example .cshrc setup command:

    setenv XKeysymDB /location/of/XKeysymDB

If this environment variable is set up properly and the XKeysymDB file actually exists, the problem should go away.
