Modified Files:
exec/user_settings.js
Log Message:
Enable raw input mode when prompting for backspace key

Since the user we're editing here is not a pointer to the current user,
changing the USER_SWAP_DELETE settings before this prompt doesn't prevent
the DEL->BS translation from happening. Raw input mode does.

Without this change, it would appear the user's backspace key would toggle
between sending either ^H or DEL for the backspace key (for terminals that
actually send DEL).
