For the console:
man gettytab; grep for "erase char".

For xterm:
man xterm; grep for "backarrowKey", "ttyModes", "ptyInitialErase", and
"deleteIsDEL". You probably need only the latter two.

Put your favorite settings into /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm to make them
the host-wide defaults.

man xmodmap; Map Shift_L and Shift_R to Caps_Lock or vice-versa.
