   This morning I woke up with a "I /have/ too look into that" thought : the   
   above can be interfered with.   
      
   Just type "set c^^d=foobar" on the commandline, and that "foobar" will be   
   all the caption you get.   
      
   IOW, trying to hide an evironment variables name isn't foolproof.   
      
   ... even when I sleep I seem to have too much time on my hands. :-)
