Hi,

Is it possible to change the current process's environment variables?

I have looked at `std/process.d` source code, and there is only a private method `createEnv` used when new (sub)process is created.

In C `putEnv` the answer is positive: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/putenv.3.html (FIXME)

I come to this question as I want to set some custom variables for my unittests. My program reads some tokens from system environments, and it's convenient if I can simulate different cases for testings.

Thanks for your reading and support.

you can use libc's `putenv()` in D too, it is ok. just import `core.sys.posix.stdlib`, it is there. D is not antagonistic to C, and doesn't try to replace the whole libc with it's own libraries. so if you see something that libc has and you'd like to use -- just do it! ;-)
