NAME

args2env - Turns command arguments into environment variables and executes command with the remained arguments

SYNOPSIS

args2env [OPTIONS] COMMAND ARG_1 ARG_2 ... ARG_R2 ARG_R1

-a, --arg NUM: Move the NUMth argument to the environment by the name ARG_NUM > (may be overridden by --template option). Counting starts from 1. The 0th argument would be the COMMAND itself. NUM may be negative number, in which case it's counted from the end backwards.
-r, --right-arg NUM: Same as --arg -NUM >.
-A, --all: Move all arguments to environment.
-k, --keep NUM: Keep the first NUM arguments as arguments, and move the rest of them to environment. Don't use it with -A, -a, or -r.
-t, --template TEMPLATE: How to name environment variables? Must contain a %d macro. Default is ARG_%d. So the value of argument given by --arg 1 goes to ARG_1 variable.
-nt, --negative-template TEMPLATE: How to name environment variables for arguments specified by negative number? Must contain a %d macro. Default is ARG_R%d, R is for "right", because this arg is counted from the right. So the value of argument given by --arg -1 goes to ARG_R1 variable.
-s, --set NAME=NUM: Set NAME variable to the NUMth argument (negative numbers also may be given) and remove the argument from the argument list (keeping the numbering of remaining arguments unchanged). Number-based variables (ARG_n > and ARG_Rn >) are still available.
