<title>Environment Commands</title>
<para><command>systemd</command> supports an environment block that is passed to processes the manager
spawns. The names of the variables can contain ASCII letters, digits, and the underscore
character. Variable names cannot be empty or start with a digit. In variable values, most characters
are allowed, but non-printable characters are currently rejected. The total length of the environment
block is limited to <constant>_SC_ARG_MAX</constant> value defined by

<listitem><para>Sets environment variables for executed processes. Takes a space-separated list of variable
assignments. This option may be specified more than once, in which case all listed variables will be set. If
the same variable is set twice, the later setting will override the earlier setting. If the empty string is
assigned to this option, the list of environment variables is reset, all prior assignments have no
effect. Variable expansion is not performed inside the strings, however, specifier expansion is possible. The $
character has no special meaning. If you need to assign a value containing spaces or the equals sign to a
variable, use double quotes (") for the assignment.</para>
