I have a clean installation of openSuse. This automatically sets up bash as the default shell.

For historic reasons, all of the aliases and shortcuts I want to port from an old computer are in tcsh, and I don't really feel up to learning how to do the same in bash. Instead, I changed the login shell to tcsh, and I'm happy.

The problem I have now is that backspace only deletes forward (like the del key), instead of backward (like ctrl+h). How can I bind the backspace key to delete backwards instead of forward?

See if this helps: sdf-eu.org/faq:basics13 — it's not about tcsh, but chances are that it is related to the issue, I'd say it's worth a shot. – njsg Mar 26 '12 at 14:07
