So far that is the only problem you have made clear.  If you don't tell 
us what is happening we have no idea how to help you.  If it is a 
"minor" problem, why are you complaining about it?

I get that you know nothing of Unix.  If you want to learn you can fix 
this.

Are you going to explain to us in what way KEY doesn't work other than 
the BS/delete problem?

Your language is very inflammatory.  If you want to support multiple OS 
then maybe you should learn something about them???  You are coming 
across like a child throwing a tantrum.  Why not discuss the issues with 
us and maybe there will be a simple way to deal with this just as others 
were able to show you how to use EKEY properly.
