That's not the important bit, which is the "bindkey" statement.
Stephane's suggestion checks if there is information about what
the "delete" key outputs, and if there is, it rebinds that. Assuming
you're using ^h or ^? for backward delete, the two key lines are the
bindkey -M viins '^?' backward-delete-char
bindkey -M viins '^H' backward-delete-char
The test above those attempts to see which of the two possibilities the
"backspace" key is sending. Typically, the two lines above will be
fine.
