The first computer I ever worked on was a Prime (or Pr1me).  They had there

own terminals, but any async terminal would do, and we used lots of ADDS 
(I think that's what you meant) terminals.  I don't recall about the 
backspace key, though.  I do remember the break key was configurable, so 
if you were hooking up to a DEC, you could send a "real" break, and if not,

you could send something else.
