do that, but make it behave like = before the start of the command.
rc provides the outer syntax for all commands, as it does for file matching
and redirection.
the commands receive argv[], and (in Plan 9) /env as before.
rc puts positional word arguments in argv, which are identified by
position, and assignments in /env, which is what it currently does for x=y
before a command (or before no command).
