PRINTENV(1) BSD Reference Manual PRINTENV(1) NNAAMMEE pprriinntteennvv, eennvv - print out the environment, set and print environment SSYYNNOOPPSSIISS pprriinntteennvv [_n_a_m_e] eennvv [--] [_n_a_m_e_=_v_a_l_u_e _._._.] [_c_o_m_m_a_n_d] DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN PPrriinntteennvv prints out the names and values of the variables in the environ- ment, with one name/value pair per line. If _n_a_m_e is specified, only its value is printed. If a _n_a_m_e is specified and it is not defined in the environment, pprriinntteennvv returns exit status 1, else it returns status 0. EEnnvv executes _c_o_m_m_a_n_d after modifying the environment as specified on the command line. The option _n_a_m_e_=_v_a_l_u_e specifies an environmental variable, _n_a_m_e, with a value of _v_a_l_u_e. The option `--' causes eennvv to completely ig- nore the environment it inherits. If no command is specified, eennvv prints out the names and values of the variables in the environment, with one name/value pair per line.
