TERM<br />

This variable contains the terminal type.<br />

TK_NTLINKS_OFF<br />

MKS Toolkit supports hard links under Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 on NTFS file systems.<br />

There is a slight loss of performance for this support. If you do not require hard link support<br />

then you should set and export the environment variable TK_NTLINKS_OFF to disable this<br />

support.<br />

TK_NTSECURITYINFO_OFF<br />

MKS Toolkit supports Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 security information on NTFS file<br />

systems. There is a slight loss of performance for this support. If you do not require any<br />

security information then you should set and export the environment variable<br />

TK_NTSECURITYINFO_OFF to disable this feature.<br />

TK_NTSECURITYINFO_SID_TERSE<br />

Under Windows NT/2000/XP/2003, when using ls with the -l option, files having an<br />

associated SID, whose name cannot be determined, display the value of the SID instead.<br />

SID values are usually very large. You should set and export the<br />

TK_NTSECURITYINFO_SID_TERSE environment variable. This causes all SID values to<br />

be shortened by replacing all the subauthority values, except the last one, by the string "-...-<br />

".<br />

TK_PERL_USE_COMSPEC<br />

When set, this environment variable causes perl to use the contents of the environment<br />

variable COMSPEC as the full path name of the current shell, whether or not the<br />

environment variable SHELL is set.<br />

TMPDIR<br />

By default, MKS Toolkit <strong>com</strong>mands store temporary files under /tmp. To use a different<br />

directory for temporary files, set TMPDIR to the name of the directory you want to use.<br />

TZ<br />

Commands that print times (and dates) use this variable to determine the time zone. If the<br />

TZ variable is left undefined, the operating system's current time zone setting is used. See<br />

timezone for details. On Windows, the MKS Toolkit makes use of the built-in timezone<br />

support, and you should not set the TZ environment variable.<br />

PORTABILITY<br />

The standard names on Windows systems are a superset of those used by UNIX programs, with<br />

COMSPEC (ComSpec under Windows NT/2000/XP/2003), ROOTDIR and TK_* being the major<br />
