$PRODUCES declare.c

$BUILTIN declare
$FUNCTION declare_builtin
$SHORT_DOC declare [-aAfFgiIlnrtux] [name[=value] ...] or declare -p [-aAfFilnrtux] [name ...]
Set variable values and attributes.

Declare variables and give them attributes.  If no NAMEs are given,
display the attributes and values of all variables.

Options:
  -f	restrict action or display to function names and definitions
  -F	restrict display to function names only (plus line number and
		source file when debugging)
  -g	create global variables when used in a shell function; otherwise
		ignored
  -I	if creating a local variable, inherit the attributes and value
		of a variable with the same name at a previous scope
  -p	display the attributes and value of each NAME

Options which set attributes:
  -a	to make NAMEs indexed arrays (if supported)
  -A	to make NAMEs associative arrays (if supported)
  -i	to make NAMEs have the `integer' attribute
  -l	to convert the value of each NAME to lower case on assignment
  -n	make NAME a reference to the variable named by its value
  -r	to make NAMEs readonly
  -t	to make NAMEs have the `trace' attribute
  -u	to convert the value of each NAME to upper case on assignment
  -x	to make NAMEs export

Using `+' instead of `-' turns off the given attribute.

Variables with the integer attribute have arithmetic evaluation (see
the `let' command) performed when the variable is assigned a value.

When used in a function, `declare' makes NAMEs local, as with the `local'
command.  The `-g' option suppresses this behavior.

Exit Status:
Returns success unless an invalid option is supplied or a variable
assignment error occurs.
$END

$BUILTIN typeset
$FUNCTION declare_builtin
$SHORT_DOC typeset [-aAfFgiIlnrtux] name[=value] ... or typeset -p [-aAfFilnrtux] [name ...]
Set variable values and attributes.

A synonym for `declare'.  See `help declare'.

$FUNCTION local_builtin
$SHORT_DOC local [option] name[=value] ...
Define local variables.

Create a local variable called NAME, and give it VALUE.  OPTION can
be any option accepted by `declare'.

Local variables can only be used within a function; they are visible
only to the function where they are defined and its children.

Exit Status:
Returns success unless an invalid option is supplied, a variable
assignment error occurs, or the shell is not executing a function.
