Putty has settings for all of the things you need.
On the Putty configuration screen (Tree)
Code:
Select Terminal
            KeyBoard
               backspace

You have to match your settings there to what the UNIX terminal is set to.
Code:
stty -a

Will show you the erase character which is by default ctrl/[backspacekey]

Next, you are confusing what vi (vim or whatever) uses for erase versus what the interactive shell uses. They have nothing to do with each other really.

That is pretty much independent of your terminal setting. When you interact with the shell, the vt100 (terminal settings) do matter. vi lives in its own world.

NAME
Test::Unit::Runner::Terminal - unit testing framework helper class SYNOPSIS
use Test::Unit::Runner::Terminal; my $testrunner = Test::Unit::Runner::Terminal->new(); $testrunner->start($my_test_class); DESCRIPTION
This class is a test runner for the command line style use of the testing framework. It is similar to its parent class, Test::Unit::TestRunner, but it uses terminal escape sequences to continually update a more informative status report as the runner progresses through the tests than just a string of dots, E's and F's. The status report indicates the number of tests run, the number of failures and errors encountered, which test is currently being run, and where it lives in the suite hierarchy. The class needs one argument, which is the name of the class encapsulating the tests to be run. OPTIONS
