set jsub (jstart qcronsub) parameters by environment variable
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

Please extend jsub with the capability to set its parameters by an environment variable, e.g. JSUB_OPTIONS. This should be secondary, of course, so that you can overwrite environment options by command-line options. This would make crontabs (at least mine) and manual invocations (I know that this is also achievable by aliases) much shorter and clearer. Thanks in advance.

There is a patch in need of some review love to provide a .jsubrc for defaults; perhaps that does the trick? (T56054)

The support for .jsubrc should suffice / be better for both given use cases.
