'export' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Let's open a bash
shell and look for the export
command:
DavidPostill@Hal /f/test
$ which export
which: no export in (.:/home/DavidPostill/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/c/Windows/system32:/c/Windows)
That tells us that there isn't a program called export
.
So what is it?
export is a bash built in command.
Source export.
It has no meaning outside of a bash
shell.
