'who am i' produces the following output in gnome-terminal:

However, in mrxvt, it does not produce any output.

hum...@nifty:~$ who am i
hum...@nifty:~$

What could be the reason for this? Is this a bug?

:) You did the command 'who' with parameters 'am' and 'i'.

The command you are looking for is 'whoami'.

Pay closer attention:

GNOME TERMINAL:
$ who am i
me       pts/3        2009-01-23 14:58 (:0.0)
$ whoami
me

RXVT:
$ who am i
$ whoami
me
