Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/keycastr/keycastr/issues/60

When capturing all keystrokes, it might be helpful to have an option where rather than printing the X in a box backspace/delete symbol, Keycaster could instead delete the last character in the line displayed (if it's still on the screen).

Killer app. Thanks! M

We'll add this as an additional option to the default visualizer. Probably we'll also need to rename the default visualizer to something more fun, like "kitchen sink" 😄
