setenv is csh; export is /bin/sh.  Don't confuse the two or else you will be
doomed to wander endlessly in confusion.  :-) / 2

For /bin/sh, you can't export a variable on the line you set it; that's an
extension found in bash, ksh, and zsh, but is not part of the original sh:

  #!/bin/sh
  SDL_VIDEO_X11_DGAMOUSE=0
  export SDL_VIDEO_X11_DGAMOUSE
  QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=sdl
  export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV
  nohup qemu -soundhw es1370 ~/qemu/win98se/win98se_disk.img &
