This is true for every > version of UNIX I know. This is of course correct except for the `undocumented' claim. The `envp' has been documented as the third argument to main() since the Pharaons (well, not quite ;). Apparently AT&T UNIX even has a (documented) five-parameter main(). Besides, the `envp' argument is a recommended extension in ISO/ANSI C, so you can hardly say that it's undocumented. l8r, patryk.
