10.3. Kvt

10.3.1. How do I page-up or page-down in kvt?

Use Shift+Page-up and Shift+Page-down.

10.3.2. How do I toggle the behaviour of backspace and delete?

Look under Options->Terminal of your kvt window.

10.3.3. How do I perform a simple 'cut' from kvt to anything else?

When I do a ls, first I select with the mouse the desired text, press CTRL+C, then I make the other app active, point the mouse to the relevant part and press CTRL+V. Alternatively, highlight the text by dragging with the left mouse button down and paste by clicking with the middle button (or both buttons if you have 3 button emulation set and you are using a two button mouse).

10.3.4. How do I set the size of the scroll-back buffer?

Try: kvt -sl <number>

By the way, if you execute kvt with some unknown option eg. kvt -x, kvt will print out a list of valid options.
