Not likely - I know Jzip and several others must intercept delete to handle
command line editing. (Which should be handled by the interpreter, not the
inform program.) Why? Because "delete" is a device-dependant key. For
instance, what if one were to play IF on a modified ZIP on a teletype.
Unless there was an "erase" ribbon in the teletype, forget it.

As long as an intepreter doesn't intercept those too... ;^)
(I have no plans to do that)
