💅 SYNOPSIS 💅

#include MUT_H

char *mbkgetenv(const char *name);

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the mbkgetenv() function goes on a little quest through the environment list, searching for a string that matches the string pointed to by name. the strings it's looking at are all shaped like name = value, that's the vibe. 💖

---

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

if it finds your girl, mbkgetenv() hands you back a pointer to the value in the environment. slay. 💅

if there's no match, you get NULL instead. no cap, that's just how it is. 😭

heads up bestie: if MBK_TRACE_GETENV is set to "yes", then mbkgetenv() will print debug info to stdout before the real getenv() syscall is done. so you'll see the tea before the tea, iykyk 🔥
