export [-fn] [name[=value] ...] or export -p [-f] Set export attribute for shell variables.

Marks each NAME for automatic export to the environment of subsequently executed commands. If VALUE is supplied, assign VALUE before exporting.

Options:

  • -f - refer to shell functions
  • -n - remove the export property from each NAME
  • -p - display a list of all exported variables or functions

An argument of -- disables further option processing.

Exit Status: Returns success unless an invalid option is given or NAME is invalid.
