I'd be happy to read that discussion. environment is added to keep the old command line conventions. damien's suggestion of adding %-support for the command line make this 2nd way of passing information unnecessary. all relevant information should be passed in the same way. we should avoid mixing argv[] and environ[] unless necessary. it's too error prone, especially if passing everything on the command like is simpler. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. _______________________________________________ openssh-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-bugs
