I don't see the point of logname if it only grabs $LOGNAME from the environment, anyone can just as easily do that from any environment they be in. It seems a bit sucky just to duplicate the results of `echo "$LOGNAME"` for the sake of a program. More complex logname variants look at the terminal connected to stdin to work out the login name. This, however, sucks, just as much as writing a full program just to print out an environment variable. Basically, I don't see the point in this. I'm willing to be convinced otherwise, though.
