I don't understand why some environment variables are not visible from
Python.
[steve@wow-wow ~]$ echo $LINES $COLUMNS $TERM
30 140 xterm
[steve@wow-wow ~]$ python2.6
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Dec 21 2010, 18:12:50)
[GCC 4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-27)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> (os.getenv('LINES'), os.getenv('COLUMNS'), os.getenv('TERM'))
(None, None, 'xterm')
