Unfortunately there seems to be no standard in Linux (any Linux experts 
on this mailing list know more about this ?). E.g. on my machine (SLC4) 
I have a variable USERNAME, my colleague (Fedora) has LOGNAME. One 
possibility would be to use the output of "whoami" which - I think - 
should be present on all Linux installations.
For Windows I don't know...
In any case this additional feature of putting the username in the 
component should be optional (this could be easily driven by some setSF* 
file).
