Environment variables are settings that are passed to programs.

General usage

Environment variables can be written in front of the command that is executed. Syntax: environmentVariable=value myProgram. For example, if you want to pass the variable EDITOR set to nano to crontab -e, you could run EDITOR=nano crontab -e. If you want to pass more than one variable, just write a space between them, for example LANG=en EDITOR=nano crontab -e
