on the other hand...

no way to implement something like `export' ?

"export" is simply "putenv()"

If you don't export a shell variable, then it has nothing to do with
the environment; it's never placed in the environment at all.  If you
put something in the environment using setenv or putenv, it will
always be inherited by child processes.
