unset - unset values and attributes of variables and functions
Návod, kniha: POSIX Programmer's Manual
unset [-fv] name ...
Each variable or function specified by
name shall be unset.
If
-v is specified,
name refers to a variable name and the shell
shall unset it and remove it from the environment. Read-only variables cannot
be unset.
If
-f is specified,
name refers to a function and the shell shall
unset the function definition.
If neither
-f nor
-v is specified,
name refers to a
variable; if a variable by that name does not exist, it is unspecified whether
a function by that name, if any, shall be unset.
Unsetting a variable or function that was not previously set shall not be
considered an error and does not cause the shell to abort.
The
unset special built-in shall support the Base Definitions volume of
IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 12.2, Utility Syntax Guidelines.
Note that:
is not equivalent to an
unset of
VARIABLE; in the example,
VARIABLE is set to
"" . Also, the variables that can
be
unset should not be misinterpreted to include the special parameters
(see
Special Parameters ).

Unset
VISUAL variable:
Unset the functions
foo and
bar:
Consideration was given to omitting the
-f option in favor of an
unfunction utility, but the standard developers decided to retain
historical practice.
The
-v option was introduced because System V historically used one name
space for both variables and functions. When
unset is used without
options, System V historically unset either a function or a variable, and
there was no confusion about which one was intended. A portable POSIX
application can use
unset without an option to unset a variable, but
not a function; the
-f option must be used.
None.
