The 'env' command prints out all of the environment variables and their values.
Come up with a command that prints a list of environment variables whose names
end with either 'NAME', 'DIR' or 'PATH'.
What I've tried.
Although it highlights the part of the variables it does not list them as it should. It actually prints the whole lines including the variables. Not sure what I'm missing.

env
ENV(1) BSD General Commands Manual ENV(1)NAME
env -- set and print environment
SYNOPSIS
env [-i] [name=value ...] [utility [argument ...]]
DESCRIPTION
env executes utility after modifying the environment as specified on the command line. The option name=value specifies an environmental
variable, name, with a value of value. The option '-i' causes env to completely ignore the environment it inherits.
If no utility is specified, env prints out the names and values of the variables in the environment, with one name=value pair per line.
DIAGNOSTICS
If the utility is invoked, the exit status of env shall be the exit status of utility; otherwise, the env utility exits with one of the fol-
lowing values:
0 The env utility completed successfully
1-125 An error occurred in the env utility.
126 The utility specified by utility was found, but could not be invoked.
127 The utility specified by utility could not be found.
COMPATIBILITY
The historic - option has been deprecated but is still supported in this implementation.
SEE ALSO execvp(3), environ(7)STANDARDS
The env utility conforms to IEEE Std 1003.2-1992 (``POSIX.2'').
BUGS
env doesn't handle commands with equal (``='') signs in their names, for obvious reasons.
