X-Git-Tag: edk2-stable201903~9381
X-Git-Url: https://git.proxmox.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=34098df21247b3e7cf0268b06ff73ef68c828709;hp=6e3227c88c0a53df0a963628b1110f7d39e89883;p=mirror_edk2.git

Treat ASCII 0x7F as backspace for TtyTerm terminals

Treat ASCII 0x7F as backspace, rather than delete, for TTY terminals.  This
better matches the default Linux terminal settings that are used when connecting
to a simulated platform using xterm or a similar terminal program.
