     env - run a program in a modified environment

SYNOPSIS
     env [OPTION]... [-] [NAME=VALUE]... [COMMAND [ARG]...]

DESCRIPTION
     Set each NAME to VALUE in the environment and run COMMAND.

     -i, --ignore-environment
          start with an empty environment

     -0, --null
          end each output line with 0 byte rather than newline

     -u, --unset=NAME
          remove variable from the environment

     --help
