[Quoted] The menu entry is a shell script calling at the end sqplus.sh:

ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server export ORACLE_HOME
ORACLE_SID=XE
export ORACLE_SID
NLS_LANG=`$ORACLE_HOME/bin/nls_lang.sh`
export NLS_LANG
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
export PATH
sqlplus /nolog

The set command should work because it gives an error message when called without parameters.
Some years ago I worked with SQL*Plus, but I've never seen such a bad output. :-(
