NAME
logname - Displays user login name
SYNOPSIS
logname
STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:
logname: XCU5.0
Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.
OPTIONS
None
OPERANDS
None
DESCRIPTION
The logname command writes to standard output the name you used to log into the system.
NOTES
The logname command explicitly ignores the LOGNAME environment variable to avoid erroneous results from environment changes.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: Successful completion. The getlogin() utility would fail.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables affect the execution of *cmd*: Provides a default value for the internationalization variables that are
unset or null. If LANG is unset or null, the corresponding value from the default locale is used. If any of the internationalization vari-
ables contain an invalid setting, the utility behaves as if none of the variables had been defined. If set to a non-empty string value,
overrides the values of all the other internationalization variables. Determines the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes
of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to multibyte characters in arguments). Determines the locale for the for-
mat and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error. Determines the location of message catalogues for the processing of
LC_MESSAGES.
