For the shell I would stronly urge you to enable editread(1) - whether or
not you plan to use the linedit features. It allows you to control exactly
what keys do what and it works rather better than the terminfo stuff.
Use man editread for more info - then play around. Note that editread works
on MV DG/UX 4.0x - it is somewhat obscurely documented (i.e. not mentioned
in either the sh or csh man page).
