envelope

Store environment variables for projects in a central SQLite database!

• Automatically export/unexport environments when entering/leaving directories
• Need an environment variable in more than one environment? Create a reference to it instead of copying it.

Project Status

I'm using envelope personally, but I can't recommend it for anyone else to use until I have more features and tab completion. The CLI interface is also not stable.
