@env
{environment-variable}
Use the @env
command to indicate environment variables, as used
by many operating systems, including GNU. Do not use it for
metasyntactic variables; use @var
instead (see the previous
section).
@env
is equivalent to @code
in its effects.
For example:
The @env{PATH} environment variable ...
produces
The PATH environment variable ...
