LOGNAME(1)                 OpenBSD Reference Manual                 LOGNAME(1)

NAME
     logname - display user's login name

SYNOPSIS
     logname

DESCRIPTION
     The logname utility writes the user's login name to standard output fol-
     lowed by a newline (`\n').

     The logname utility explicitly ignores the LOGNAME and USER environment
     variables because the environment cannot be trusted.

     The logname utility exits 0 on success or >0 if an error occurred.
