rogue[345]: fix backspace key in prompts. md_readchar() mapped KEY_BACKSPACE to CTRL-H, but get_str(), which handles prompts for strings, only backs up when it receives the erase character. The key should be mapped to md_erasechar(). This fixes Red Hat Bugzilla #847852.

line source

This is the source for the Roguelike Gallery's versions of Rogue and other
early roguelike games.

The code was obtained from the Roguelike Restoration Project
(rogue.rogueforge.net).  Modifications have been made mainly for compatibility
with the dgamelaunch online play system.  Some bugs have also been fixed, and
the build process slightly improved.  The essential flavor of a codebase half
as old as stored-program computing machinery remains unchanged.

See the individual games' subdirectories for their documentation.

The games can be played via SSH or the Web at rlgallery.org.
