To find out what 'term' is set to,

:set term?

To find out the settings of all options,

:set all

To find out the settings of all options not set to their default
values,

:set

See

:help :set

You would think that "term=xterm" would appear in the output of
":set", but it doesn't, probably because ":help term" says that the
default value is $TERM.

HTH,
Gary
