> Interesting yes. One poster asked why would you use a forward delete. (Windows Delete) Hmm I thought. While I cannot think of a reason, when I use my rMBP, I find myself often relocating the cursor to use Mac delete. Habit I guess. Windows has forward and backward delete on two keys, OS X has it as one key or that key and another.
DOS had forward and backward delete.
Apple ][ had forward and backward delete.
Mac decided to drop the dedicated forward delete (for reasons unknown to me), but current systems provide for its use anyway (<function><delete>).
