@@ -1021,6 +1021,14 @@ SUMMARY OF CONFIGURE OPTIONS:
 	Configure the trace() function as part of the all models of the ncurses
 	library.  Normally it is part of the debug (libncurses_g) library only.
 
+    --with-xterm-kbs=XXX
+	Configure xterm's terminfo entries to use either BS (^H, i.e., ASCII
+	backspace) or DEL (^?, or 127).  XXX can be BS (or bs, 8) or DEL
+	(or del, 127).
+
+	During installation, the makefile and scripts modifies the "xterm+kbs"
+	terminfo entry to use this setting.
+
     --with-valgrind
 	For testing, compile with debug option.
 	This also sets the --disable-leaks option.
