I want to call a script with NSTask and I want to set an environment variable.

But it seems like bad form to blow away the current environment. So I guess I need to read the current environment and extend it before passing it to NSTask.

Is there any Cocoa API which returns the environment as a NSDictionary, or do I need to drop down to the UNIX getenv() level?
