The solution used where I work is to source ~/`uname -s`/profile and then place the correct 'stty' command in the platform-specific profile.

On a daily basis I work on a number of different Unix platforms including Linux, HP-UX, Solaris, AIX, and IRIX. Most of my work is done from either a HP-UX machine or a Linux machine. Most of these systems use a different character for "erase" (HP uses 'DEL', Sun uses '^h', Linux uses '^?'). I know that I can change the character by doing "stty erase ^?", but this gets a bit tiresome. Has anybody devised a way to determine what the setting should be for the type of terminal you are on and set it that way? If so, can you share, please.....
