[TxMt] Making prototypes $ easier to type

[Andreas Wahlin]

yes, because of the $R, $V and other possible  $'s I thought that one  
could have the backspace thingie, because I use the $ to get elements  
at least 90% of the time. Of course, others may have it different.

What I was looking for was mainly a way to revert the last thing done  
with backspace so to speak, like both parantheses disappear when you  
just delete one of them if you just added a pair. Perhaps this is  
hard-coded behaviour?
