SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdlib.h>

       char *getenv(char *name);

DESCRIPTION

       the form name=value and returns a pointer to the string value if such a
       string is present, otherwise getenv returns the value 0 (NULL).

RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful	 completion,  getenv  returns  a  pointer  to a string
       containing the value for the specified name, or a NULL pointer  if  the
       specified name cannot be found.	Unsuccessful completion results in the
       return of a NULL pointer.
