-* The @read@ command reads text input until @EOF@ (designated by @<<EOF@) and stores it in the @ARVADOS_API_TOKEN@ environment variable.
* The @export@ command puts a local shell variable into the environment that will be inherited by child processes such as the @arv@ client.
-h2. Setting the environment manually

-Alternately, look for the column *api_token* contains the actual token string that you will use. Copy the value of *api_token* for the first row onto the clipboard.
