If you're finding that backspace cancels lines instead of the last 
character on the SIMH console, then this command:

  sim> set console del=177

...will fix it.  BACKSPACE will then generate a character delete, and 
CTRL+BACKSPACE will generate a line delete.

(For reasons unclear to me, SIMH defaults to having the console driver 
substitute 0177 when it sees 010.  The above setting tells SIMH to pass 010 
and 0177 to the program unmolested.)
