Support word deletion

[unclechu]

It is possible to delete a whole word? Like Ctrl+W in Bash/Vim for instance or Ctrl+Backspace in a common visual editor. Is it even possible to implement in the scope of Taskell or is it a vty’s or ncurses’ thing?

It's something that vty struggles with (or certainly used to). Detecting modifier keys isn't something I've ever managed to get working, even VTY has an API for it: it doesn't give back consistent/useful results.
