Not sure what he is trying to do. :-(

Well he is me so let my try and explain.
The idea is to be able to simply assign Env vars to variables so for
example you might do
"
my $windir is env;
And then $windir should be assigned the value of the %*ENV<WINDIR>
variable at runtime.
Hi Simon,
Well Trait::Env installed with zef in Windows10-1909.
I am not seeing the utility of
use Trait::Env; my $windir is env; say $windir;
versus
my $windir=%*ENV<WINDIR>; say $windir;
And something is wrong.
First a Fedora test:
$ raku -e 'say %*ENV<HOME>;'
/home/todd
now a double check of Windows:
echo %WINDIR%
C:\WINDOWS
Now for Trait::Env
raku -e "use Trait::Env; my $windir is env; say $windir;"
(Any)
raku -e "use Trait::Env; my $WINDIR is env; say $WINDIR;"
(Any)
And %*ENV
raku -e "say %*ENV<WINDIR>;"
(Any)
raku -e "my $windir=%*ENV<WINDIR>; say $windir"
(Any)

There's a bunch of other stuff in it too, it's mostly intended to make
Docker environment setup easy to use but should be useful in other areas.
No clue about Docker. I use qemu-kvm
How could I make the documentation easier to understand?
It is not you; it is me. I can be thick as a stone at times.
