I use the XTERM_VERSION environment variable. xterm defines it, konsole doesn't.

Note that if xterm is started with -bc for a blinking cursor, the effects of the 5 and 6 are reversed, so that 5 is steady and 6 blinking.

Also, I sometimes use the "Set Text Parameters" sequence to change the colour of the cursor; so

if $XTERM_VERSION =~? "xterm"
let &t_SI = "\<Esc>]12;green\x7"
let &t_EI = "\<Esc>]12;red\x7"
endif
