DESCRIPTION
       Tcl_PutEnv sets an environment variable. The information is passed in a
       single  string of the form “NAME=value”.  This procedure is intended to
       be a stand-in for the UNIX putenv system call. All  Tcl-based  applica-
       tions  using  putenv should redefine it to Tcl_PutEnv so that they will
       interface properly to the Tcl runtime.
