Physical problem with Delete key, so trying to bind control backspace to delete, so I tried both lines unsuccessfully:

bindsym control+BackSpace exec xdotool keyup control && sleep 0.1 && xdotool key Delete
bindcode control+135 exec xdotool keyup control && sleep 0.1 && xdotool key Delete

They don't seem to work.

However, when I tried binding backspace with $mod, it actually works deleting characters to the right. Then I tried control+a and this works. So the combination of control and backspace does not work.
