In case anyone else was having this trouble of the 'DEL' delete key not working for them. I couldn't figure out why pressing this key would not delete a statue. So I went through and started pressing all the keys and found out that the 'x' key actually deletes a statue. The editing.html page says to use DEL so I was a bit confused for awhile. So hopefully this helps anyone else having this trouble.
jlv, is this just a keyboard scancode issue or did you just recently change statue delete to the 'x' key? Just curious as all the other keys work accordingly in the editor.

I added 'x' because some people were having trouble with 'del'. Of course, I forgot to mention it anywhere. Thanks for pointing it out.
Btw, does it print anything when you hit 'del'? It should say 'Pressed 0x7f' (7f hex is the ascii delete code). But something is obviously going wrong.

No it doesn't print anything like it does with the other keys. In fact, it doesn't print anything for that group of 6 keys there: Insert, Delete, Home, End, Page Up, or Page Down keys. It's like it doesn't recongize that group of 6 keys or something. But if none of them have a function then I guess it really isn't an issue.

The only new feature in the screenshots is the SubMode selector. If you're missing something besides that, you're probably running the wrong exe.
