address@hidden Invoking guix environment
address@hidden Invoking @command{guix environment}
+
+The purpose of @command{guix environment} is to assist hackers in
+creating reproducible development environments without polluting their
+package profile.  The @command{guix environment} tool takes a package,
+builds all of the necessary inputs, and creates a shell environment to
+use them.
+
+The general syntax is:
+
address@hidden
+guix environment @var{options} @address@hidden
address@hidden example
+
+The following examples spawns a new shell that is capable of building
+the GNU Guile source code:
+
address@hidden
+guix environment guile
address@hidden example
+
+The new shell's environment is an augmented version of the environment
+that @command{guix environment} was run in.  It contains the necessary
+search paths for building the given package added to the existing
+environment variables.  To create a ``pure'' environment in which the
+original environment variables have been unset, use the @code{--pure}
+option.
+
+Additionally, more than one package may be specified.
+
address@hidden
+guix environment guile emacs
address@hidden example
+
+Sometimes an interactive shell session is not desired.  The
address@hidden option can be used to specify the command to run instead.
+
address@hidden
+guix environment guile --exec=make
address@hidden example
+
+If the specified packages are not built yet, @command{guix environment}
+automatically builds them.  The build process may be controlled with the
+same options that can be passed to the @command{guix build} command
+(@pxref{Invoking guix build, common build options}).
+
+The following options are available:
+
address@hidden @code
address@hidden address@hidden
address@hidden -e @var{expr}
+Create an environment for the package that @var{expr} evaluates to.
+
address@hidden address@hidden
address@hidden -l @var{file}
+Create an environment for the package that the code within @var{file}
+evaluates to.
+
address@hidden address@hidden
address@hidden -e @var{command}
+Execute @var{command} in the new environment.
+
address@hidden --pure
+Unset existing environment variables when building the new environment.
+This has the effect of creating an environment in which search paths
+only contain package inputs.
+
address@hidden --search-paths
+Display needed environment variable definitions.
