Description:
When using Cursor CLI, pressing the Delete key does not perform the expected action.
Instead of deleting the character ahead of the cursor, it behaves the same as Backspace (deleting the character behind the cursor).
Actual Behavior:
The Delete key removes the character behind the cursor, identical to Backspace.
Steps to Reproduce
Open Cursor CLI.
Place the cursor in the middle of a line of text.
Press the Delete key.
Expected Behavior
The Delete key should remove the character in front of the cursor, consistent with standard terminal/editor behavior.
Operating System
Linux

Same as this ( Delete key behaves like Backspace ), not sure why it was closed it’s been an issue for months and is very annoying. I’m seeing it in Linux and double checked I have the latest CLI version.
Steps to Reproduce
Enter any text to the cursor cli and put cursor in front of the text you want to delete, instead of it removing text to the right of the cursor, it remove text to the left of the cursor like a backspace key would leaving the actual text I want to remove in tact to the right of the cursor.
