Exactly, except strike out "if none is specified in the environment".
It looks like it's emulating "vt102/xterm" from some quick grepping,
but I haven't looked into it too deeply. If TERM is unset, it's
currently unset in Octave. Qterminal is its own terminal emulator so
only it can say what its terminal type is, right? Doesn't matter what
the terminal mode of the parent process was.
