That would look just fine as a response to \a or \x, but I'm not sure
it would look as good as a response to \pset, which prints out that
line for every parameter ("why does every line say \pset when the
command I just typed is \pset?"). However, I can certainly live with
it if others prefer that to what I suggested.
