No,I am looking for the command 'who' with two arguments. The command 'whoami' prints only the user name. However, I want the tty and the time stamp too. As per the man page of 'who':
"If ARG1 ARG2 given, -m presumed: 'am i' or 'mom likes' are usual." "-m only hostname and user associated with stdin" So, 'who am i' is what I need. However, my question was a little different. When 'who am i' is producing output in gnome-terminal, why isn't it doing so in 'mrxvt' ?
