When i run a Fuijitsu Cobol program it requires environmental variables 
starting with the @ sign.

SET @CBR_CONSOLE=SYSTEM

When I try and set these in a bash shell I get the following.

$ export @CBR_CONSOLE=SYSTEM
-bash: export: `@CBR_CONSOLE=SYSTEM': not a valid identifier

Is there any way around this?
