Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player/issues/781

Describe the bug
Pressing backspace to go to previous page goes to commands page instead.

Happens when I press backspace inside of a text input also (e.g., search box).

To Reproduce
New install of spotify_player, open it, and press backspace.

Expected behaviour
When pressing backspace, I expect to go to the previous page.

Log and backtrace
Log does seem to indicate backspace's command is previous page, but functionally it doesn't work.

couldn't reproduce it on my end. Are you sure you don't have the backspace remapped to OpenCommandHelp or something?

You're right @aome510, I tested in stock standard terminal and it works fine. My theory is iTerm2 is changing the way backspace is handled. Closing for now.
