I am using emacs (gui) and successfully disabled in Keybindings.cua the C-arrow so that emacs receives this and moves the cursor by word or paragraph. But I can not find how to disable C-BackSpace so that I can delete a words in Emacs and other editors (eg when writing an email in Evolution or in LibreOffice).

How can I do that?

(It seems that C-BackSpace-BackSpace (hitting BackSpace twice with Control)
brings focus to the panel which I do not understand why it is so useful..)

I found a solution so I write it here for others as this is not only for Emacs but for office apps too.

Add the line

Silent Key BackSpace A C -

to the file ~/.NsCDE/Keybindings.fvwmlocal

and restart the desktop (or logout-login)
