;; This file defines the variable current-environment-mods, and the procedures
;; append-environment-mods (which is available to user configuration files),
;; clear-environment-mods and modify-environment. The idea is that the
;; current-environment-mods is a list of pairs of environment names and values,
;; and represents the cumulated environment settings in a configuration
;; file. When a job definition is seen in a configuration file, the
;; current-environment-mods are copied into the internal job description, and
;; when the job actually runs these environment modifications are applied to
;; the UNIX environment in which the job runs.

;; The env-alist is an association list of variable names and values. Variables
;; later in the list will take precedence over variables before. We return a
;; fixed-up version in which some variables are given specific default values
;; (which the user can override), and two variables which the user is not
;; allowed to control are added at the end of the list.
