termcap

[Richard D. Williams]

I have always done two things;

1) in /etc/profile.d/profile.sh
if [ "$PS1" ]; then
         case $TERM in
          dt100)
              TERM=vt100
              stty intr "^?"
          ;;
          dialup|unknown|"")
              TERM=linux
          ;;
          ansi|ansic|cansi|scoansi)
              TERM=scoansi
              stty erase "^H"
              stty intr "^?"
              stty susp ""
              stty eol ""
              stty rprnt ""
              stty werase ""
              stty eol2 ""
          ;;
          vt100|wy60)
              stty intr "^?"
          ;;
         esac
fi

This establishes the delete key and backspace function as in scoansi.

2. Place the attached, /usr/share/terminfo/s/
Make sure you set the perms like the other entries.

You can use TERM=scoansi and/or PFTERM=scoansi

I think this will work for you.
