 <para>&live-helper; respects environment variables which are present in the context of the shell it is running. If variables can be read from config files, then they override environment variables, and if command line options are used, they override values from config files. If no value for a given variable can be found (and is thus unset), &live-helper; will automatically set it to a default value.</para>
