NAME

        icewm-env - icewm environment configuration file

SYNOPSIS

        $ICEWM_PRIVCFG/env
        $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/icewm/env
        $HOME/.icewm/env
        /etc/icewm/env
        /usr/share/icewm/env

DESCRIPTION

       icewm-session(1) loads additional environment variables from the file env before it does
       anything else. These variables are then propagated to all other processes, including
       icewm(1), via their environment.

FORMAT

       Each line is subjected to POSIX shell expansion by wordexp(3).  Comment lines starting by
       a hash-sign ("#") are ignored.  icewm-session(1) will load those expanded lines which
       contain a name, followed by an equals sign, followed by the value (which may be empty).

EXAMPLES

        # This is a comment.
        # And another.

        XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP="ICEWM"
        XDG_MENU_PREFIX="unexicon-"

        START_DATE=`date`
        START_FROM=`pwd`

FILES

       icewm-session(1) looks for the env file in the following locations:

        $ICEWM_PRIVCFG/env
        $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/icewm/env
        $HOME/.icewm/env
        /etc/icewm/env
        /usr/share/icewm/env

       The locations are searched in the order listed; the first file found is read and the
       remainder ignored.
