.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Op Fl i
|
|
.Op Ar name=value ...
|
|
.Oo
|
|
.Ar utility
|
|

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
executes
|
|
.Ar utility
|
|
after modifying the environment as
|
|
specified on the command line.
|
|
The option
|
|
.Ar name=value
|
|
specifies
|
|
an environmental variable,
|
|
.Ar name ,
|
|
with a value of
|
|
.Ar value .
|
|
The option
|
|
.Sq Fl i
|
|
causes
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to completely ignore the environment
|
|
it inherits.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If no
|
|
.Ar utility
|
|
is specified,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
prints out the names and values
|
|
of the variables in the environment, with one
|
|
.Ar name=value
|
|
pair per line.
|
|
.Sh EXIT STATUS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
exits with one of the following values:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It 0
|
|
.Ar utility
|
|
was invoked and completed successfully.
|
|
In this case the exit code is returned by the utility itself, not
|
|
.Nm .
|
|
If no utility was specified, then
|
|
.Nm
|
|
completed successfully and returned the exit code itself.
|
|
.It 1
|
|
An invalid command line option was passed to
|
|
.Nm .
|
|
.It 1\-125
|
|
.Ar 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
|
|
.Nm .
|
|
.It 126
|
|
.Ar utility
|
|
was found, but could not be invoked.
|
|
.It 127
|
|
.Ar utility
|
|
could not be found.
