man 5 issue

would be the place to look but IMHO that isn't very helpful. Anyway, I 
think you can see the final string if you use Ctrl-Alt-F2 (or similar, 
use Ctrl-Alt-F7 to return to your GUI session) for a terminal login. 
There "\n" would be replaced with the host name and "\l" would be 
replaced with the terminal name.
