Existing cookbooks using `env` will continue to function, but should be updated to use the new name. Note: On UNIX-based systems, the best way to manipulate environment keys is with the `ENV` variable in Ruby; however, this approach does not have the same permanent effect as using the windows_env resource." examples <<~DOC **Set an environment variable**: |
