+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR setenv ()
+function adds the variable
+.I name
+to the
+environment with the value
+.IR value ,
+if
+.I name
+does not
+already exist.
+If
+.I name
+does exist in the environment, then
+its value is changed to
+.I value
+if
+.I overwrite
+is nonzero;
+if
+.I overwrite
+is zero, then the value of
+.I name
+is not changed (and
+.BR setenv ()
+returns a success status).
+This function makes copies of the strings pointed to by
+.I name
+and
+.I value
+(by contrast with
+.BR putenv (3)).
+.PP
+The
+.BR unsetenv ()
+function deletes the variable
+.I name
+from
+the environment.
+If
+.I name
+does not exist in the environment,
+then the function succeeds, and the environment is unchanged.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.BR setenv ()
+and
+.BR unsetenv ()
+functions return zero on success,
+or \-1 on error, with
+.I errno
+set to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+.I name
+is NULL, points to a string of length 0,
+or contains an \[aq]=\[aq] character.
+.TP
+.B ENOMEM
+Insufficient memory to add a new variable to the environment.

+.SH STANDARDS
+POSIX.1-2008.
+.SH HISTORY
+POSIX.1-2001, 4.3BSD.
+.PP
+Prior to glibc 2.2.2,
+.BR unsetenv ()
+was prototyped
+as returning
+.IR void ;
+more recent glibc versions follow the
+POSIX.1-compliant prototype shown in the SYNOPSIS.
+.SH CAVEATS
+POSIX.1 does not require
+.BR setenv ()
+or
+.BR unsetenv ()
+to be reentrant.
+.SH BUGS
+POSIX.1 specifies that if
+.I name
+contains an \[aq]=\[aq] character, then
+.BR setenv ()
+should fail with the error
+.BR EINVAL ;
+however, versions of glibc before glibc 2.3.4 allowed an \[aq]=\[aq] sign in
+.IR name .
