On SCO you can simply log into Unix and make sure you run the sh shell (if you don't simply type sh and enter). Then you can press a function key and Enter and the codes generated by the key is displayed to you. They probably aren't the same for the dumb terminals and the emulator. If that is the case you will have to create two different termcap entries for them. The delete key should interrupt anything you type and simply display a new prompt. If something is displayed it doesn't generate a DEL character.
