As far as I can tell, the t_SI and t_EI sequences¹ don't have non-Vim
equivalents in either termcap or terminfo. Is that accurate? Were they
just "made up" out of necessity? If it's not accurate, does someone
have a link to a termcap or terminfo reference that includes those two?
¹: SI = Start Insert mode, EI = Exit Insert mode. In Vim they're used
(usually?) to set the cursor shape from block to bar and back.
E.g. in Konsole (needs to be in .vimrc, since updates don't seem to take
effect):
" set cursor shape to vertical bar when entering insert mode
let &t_SI="\<Esc>]50;CursorShape=1\x7"
" set cursor shape to block when leaving insert mode
let &t_EI="\<Esc>]50;CursorShape=0\x7"
