Decouple C-d and delete, so that the former does not delete the region. * lisp/bindings.el (global-map): Bind C-d to delete-char and deletechar to delete-forward-char. * lisp/simple.el (normal-erase-is-backspace-mode): Remap delete to deletechar, and hence delete-forward-char. * src/cmds.c (Fdelete_char): Doc fix.
