ENV(1) OpenBSD Reference Manual ENV(1)NAME
env - set and print environment
SYNOPSIS
env [-i] [name=value ...] [utility [argument ...]]
DESCRIPTION
env executes utility after modifying the environment as specified on the
command line. The option name=value specifies an environment variable,
name, with a value of value.
The options are as follows:
-i Causes env to completely ignore the environment it inherits.
If no utility is specified, env prints out the names and values of the
variables in the environment, with one name=value pair per line.
EXIT STATUS
The env utility exits with one of the following values:
0 utility was invoked and completed successfully. In this case the
exit code is returned by the utility itself, not env. If no
utility was specified, then env completed successfully and
returned the exit code itself.
1 An invalid command line option was passed to env.
1-125 utility was invoked but failed in some way; see its manual page
for more information. In this case the exit code is returned by
the utility itself, not env.
126 utility was found but could not be invoked.
127 utility could not be found.
SEE ALSOexecvp(3), environ(7)STANDARDS
The env utility is compliant with the IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (``POSIX'')
specification.
The historic - option has been deprecated but is still supported in this
implementation.
BUGS
env doesn't handle commands with equal (`=') signs in their names, for
obvious reasons.
