Hi,
'help env' gives usage for 'ask' option as :
"env ask name [message] [size] - ask for environment variable"
How are the optional parameters [message] and
[size] related to env variable 'name' ??
When I execute 'env' with option 'ask' and do not enter any value for the
environment variable, it is deleted.
---------------------------------------------------------------
=> printenv vendor
vendor=ti
=> env ask vendor
Please enter 'vendor': texasInstruments
=> printenv vendor
vendor=texasInstruments
=> env ask vendor
Please enter 'vendor':
=> printenv vendor
## Error: "vendor" not defined
=>
---------------------------------------------------------------
In this case,is it expected that the environment variable gets deleted??
Regards,
Adarsh
