+/* Options:
+ -
+ -i
+ --ignore-environment
+ Construct a new environment from scratch; normally the
+ environment is inherited from the parent process, except as
+ modified by other options.
+
+ -u variable
+ --unset=variable
+ Unset variable VARIABLE (remove it from the environment).
+ If VARIABLE was not set, does nothing.
+
+ variable=value (an arg containing a "=" character)
+ Set the environment variable VARIABLE to value VALUE. VALUE
+ may be of zero length ("variable="). Setting a variable to a
+ zero-length value is different from unsetting it.
+
+ --
+ Indicate that the following argument is the program
+ to invoke. This is necessary when the program's name
+ begins with "-" or contains a "=".
+
+ The first remaining argument specifies a program to invoke;
+ it is searched for according to the specification of the PATH
+ environment variable. Any arguments following that are
+ passed as arguments to that program.
+
+ If no command name is specified following the environment
+ specifications, the resulting environment is printed.
+ This is like specifying a command name of "printenv".
+
+ Examples:
+
+ If the environment passed to "env" is
+ { LOGNAME=rms EDITOR=emacs PATH=.:/gnubin:/hacks }
+
+ env - foo
+ runs "foo" in a null environment.
+
+ env foo
+ runs "foo" in the environment
+ { LOGNAME=rms EDITOR=emacs PATH=.:/gnubin:/hacks }
+
+ env DISPLAY=gnu:0 nemacs
+ runs "nemacs" in the envionment
+ { LOGNAME=rms EDITOR=emacs PATH=.:/gnubin:/hacks DISPLAY=gnu:0 }
+
+ env - LOGNAME=foo /hacks/hack bar baz
+ runs the "hack" program on arguments "bar" and "baz" in an
+ environment in which the only variable is "LOGNAME". Note that
+ the "-" option clears out the PATH variable, so one should be
+ careful to specify in which directory to find the program to
+ call.
+
+ env -u EDITOR LOGNAME=foo PATH=/energy -- e=mc2 bar baz
+ runs the program "/energy/e=mc2" with environment
+ { LOGNAME=foo PATH=/energy }
