stdout2env [OPTIONS] -- ENVNAME-1 CMD-1 [ARG [ARG [...]]] [-- ENVNAME-2 CMD-2 [ARG [ARG [...]]] [-- ...]] [--] COMMAND [ARGS]
Run all CMD-1, CMD-2, ... commands in series,
and after each run, set the ENVNAME-n environment variable to the corresponding command's STDOUT output.
Then at the end, run the last COMMAND with all the environment set up.
Very similar to backtick notation `CMD` (and $(CMD)) in ordinary shells.
Earlier set ENVNAME variables are visible in later commands with their new value.
-d, --delimiter STRING
Take STRING as the command argv-list delimiter.
Default is double-dash --.
--keep-eol
Keep the newline char at the very end of each output.
Overwriting PATH environment may render the subsequent commands not being found.
Sometimes you don't want a shell to be in the picture when composing commands.
backtick by execlineb(1), multicmd(1), substenv(1)
