I want to display something on all pages except the home page.

{if !jrCore_is_index()}
do something
{/if}

Figure I can use

{if $page_template ne "index"}
do something
{/if}

but if there is a dedicated function, I've forgotten it!

There isn't.

add {debug} into the template you're wanting to use it in and see what variables you have available. MAYBE there is something like template name 'index' or something like that that only shows up on the index page.

There could be something useful in the $_post array because that contains all the info coming from the address bar, so maybe something from there. I think it usually has a $_post['url'] or $_post['uri'] variable in it which could work.

Last idea is to define a variable on the index page:
{$my_variable = 'index'}
then check against that variable lower down in the more internal pages.

I'd probably use the $_post array variable for this -

{if !isset($_post.module)}
Do Something
{/if}
