   This sounds exactly like Windows.   
      
   And that is very different from UEFI, which passes a pointer   
   of callable functions, right?   
      
   Which one is better in your opinion - UEFI or Linux?   
      
   And UEFI actually takes 2 parameters, not one. Are   
   two necessary/desirable?   
      
   And under what circumstances should the parameter   
   after envp be used?   
      
   Thanks. Paul.
