If it happens in two applications, it is a term issue, rather than an
ssh one. You'll want something like xmodmap so you can remap keys.
First, to see what $TERM setting is being used, try `echo $TERM` - then
you can either remap the keys with a utility, or go to
/usr/share/terminfo/foo and edit manually, but I don't really recommend
this, unless you know what you're doing. If all of this sounds like too
much headache, Ctrl-h sends a backspace.
