Description

The environment is a singleton variant that represents the XION interpreter. Properties of the environment reflect the properties of the global environment.

You can pass, send, or tell to the environment to bypass the message-passing hierarchy and execute a built-in command directly. You can also exit to the environment to immediately terminate script execution.
