Description

Lists global environments with their dependencies and exposed commands. Can also display all packages within a specific global environment when using the --environment flag.

All environments:

• Yellow: the binaries that are exposed.
• Green: the packages that are explicit dependencies of the environment.
• Blue: the version of the installed package.
• Cyan: the name of the environment.

Per environment:

• Green: packages that are explicitly installed.

Examples

We'll only show the dependencies and exposed binaries of the environment if they differ from the environment name. Here is an example of a few installed packages:
