Most programs use three input/output (IO) streams, each represented by a number called a file descriptor (FD). These are:
- Standard input, FD 0, for reading, defaults to reading from the keyboard.
+
- Standard output, FD 1, for writing, defaults to writing to the screen.
+
- Standard error, FD 2, for writing errors and warnings, defaults to writing to the screen.
The reason for providing for two output file descriptors is to allow separation of errors and warnings from regular program output.

Variables can be explicitly set to be exported with the `-x` or `--export` switch, or not exported with the `-u` or `--unexport` switch. The exporting rules when creating or updating a variable are identical to the scoping rules for variables:
-# If a variable is explicitly set to either be exported or not exported, that setting will be honored.

-# If a variable is not explicitly set to be exported or not exported, but has been previously defined, the previous exporting rule for the variable is kept.

-# If a variable is not explicitly set to be either exported or not exported and has never before been defined, the variable will not be exported.
