When I’m deleting single characters using the backspace or delete key textmate shows a very strange behaviour; instead of the character next to the cursor the second char before the cursor gets deleted. For Example: If I want to delete de character ‘a’ in the Word ‘Textmate’ I place the cursor after the ‘a’ character and press backspace. Now the character ‘m’ gets deleted! Using the delete key I have the same behaviour but to the other direction.

Are you using a fixed-width or a variable-width font? I know variable- width fonts don't work very well and I wonder if that's causing the cursor to be displayed in a different position from where it actually is.
