 This utility serializes it's process environment to Preserves and prints it to stdout.
 It can be used to feed the environment variables of a nested child of the Syndicate server back to the server. For example, to retreive the environmental variables that a desktop manager passed on to its children.

-Utility for printing assertions and messages. Parses the command-line arguments as a pattern, connects a dataspace via `$SYNDICATE_ROUTE`, and writes observations to standard-output. Published assertions are prefixed by the `+` character, retractions by `-`, and messages by `!`.
-
-Example
-```sh
-# Print patterns in use, filter down with AWK to only the published patterns.
-$ FS=':' syndump '<Observe ? _>' | awk -F : '/^+/ { print $2 }'
