Controls the Verbosity level of the logs
* 0: NONE : No message (except some fatal error). (Default.)
* 1: INFO : Show some minimum log (Example: librairies not found)
* 2: DEBUG : Details a lot of stuff (Example: relocations or functions called).
* 3: DUMP : All DEBUG plus DUMP of all ELF Info.
#### BOX64_NOBANNER
Disables Box64 printing its version and build
* 0 : Enable printing its banner. (Default.)
* 1 : Disable printing its banner.
#### BOX64_LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Path to look for x86_64 libraries. Default is current folder and `lib` in current folder.
Also, `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu` and `/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu` are added if they exist.
#### BOX64_PATH
Path to look for x86_64 executable. Default is current folder and `bin` in current folder.
#### BOX64_DLSYM_ERROR

* 0 : Don't log `dlsym` errors. (Default.)
* 1 : Log dlsym errors.
#### BOX64_TRACE_FILE

Also, if name contains `%pid` then this is replaced by the actual PID of box64 instance
Use `stderr` to use this instead of default `stdout`
#### BOX64_TRACE
Only on build with trace enabled. Trace allow the logging of all instruction executed, along with register dump
* 0 : No trace. (Default.)

* 0xXXXXXXX-0xYYYYYYY : Trace only between the 2 addresses.
#### BOX64_TRACE_INIT
Use BOX64_TRACE_INIT instead of BOX_TRACE to start trace before the initialisation of libraries and the running program
* 0 : No trace. (Default.)
* 1 : Trace enabled. The trace start with the initialisation of all depending libraries is done.
#### BOX64_TRACE_START
Only on builds with trace enabled.
* NNNNNNN : Start trace only after NNNNNNNN opcode execute (number is an `uint64_t`).
#### BOX64_TRACE_XMM
Only on builds with trace enabled.

* 1 : Dump the EMM registers.
#### BOX64_TRACE_COLOR
Only on builds with trace enabled.
* 0 : The general registers will always be the default white color. (Default.)
* 1 : The general registers will change color in the dumps when they changed value.

#### BOX64_X11THREADS
Call XInitThreads when loading X11. (This is mostly for old Loki games with the Loki_Compat library.)
* 0 : Don't force call XInitThreads. (Default.)
* 1 : Call XInitThreads as soon as libX11 is loaded.
#### BOX64_X11GLX
Force libX11's GLX extension to be present.
* 0 : Do not force libX11's GLX extension to be present.
* 1 : GLX will always be present when using XQueryExtension. (Default.)
#### BOX64_DYNAREC_DUMP
Enables/disables Box64's Dynarec's dump.
* 0 : Disable Dynarec's blocks dump. (Default.)
* 1 : Enable Dynarec's blocks dump.
* 2 : Enable Dynarec's blocks dump with some colors.
#### BOX64_DYNAREC_LOG
Set the level of DynaRec's logs.
* 0 : NONE : No Logs for DynaRec. (Default.)
* 1 :INFO : Minimum Dynarec Logs (only unimplemented OpCode).
* 2 : DEBUG : Debug Logs for Dynarec (with details on block created / executed).
* 3 : VERBOSE : All of the above plus more.
#### BOX64_DYNAREC
Enables/Disables Box64's Dynarec.
* 0 : Disables Dynarec.
* 1 : Enable Dynarec. (Default.)
#### BOX64_DYNAREC_TRACE
Enables/Disables trace for generated code.
* 0 : Disable trace for generated code. (Default.)
* 1 : Enable trace for generated code (like regular Trace, this will slow down the program a lot and generate huge logs).
#### BOX64_NODYNAREC
Forbid dynablock creation in the interval specified (helpfull for debugging behaviour difference between Dynarec and Interpretor)
* 0xXXXXXXXX-0xYYYYYYYY : define the interval where dynablock cannot start (inclusive-exclusive)
#### BOX64_DYNAREC_BIGBLOCK
Enables/Disables Box64's Dynarec building BigBlock.
* 0 : Don't try to build block as big as possible (can help program using lots of thread and a JIT, like C#/Unity) (Default when libmonobdwgc-2.0.so is loaded)
* 1 : Build Dynarec block as big as possible (Default.)
#### BOX64_DYNAREC_STRONGMEM
Enable/Disable simulation of Strong Memory model
* 0 : Don't try anything special (Default.)
* 1 : Enable some Memory Barrier when reading from memory (on some MOV opcode) to simulate Strong Memory Model while trying to limit performance impact (Default when libmonobdwgc-2.0.so is loaded)
* 2 : Enable some Memory Barrier when reading from memory (on some MOV opcode) to simulate Strong Memory Model
#### BOX64_DYNAREC_X87DOUBLE
Force the use of Double for x87 emulation
* 0 : Try to use float when possible for x87 emulation (faster)
* 1 : Only use Double for x87 emulation (slower, may be needed for some specific games, like Crysis)
#### BOX64_DYNAREC_FASTNAN
Enable/Disable generation of -NAN
* 0 : Generate -NAN like on x86 (Default.)
* 1 : Don't do anything special with NAN, to go as fast as possible (was default before this option exsted)
#### BOX64_LIBGL
* libXXXX set the name for libGL (defaults to libGL.so.1).
* /PATH/TO/libGLXXX : Sets the name and path for libGL
You can also use SDL_VIDEO_GL_DRIVER
#### BOX64_LD_PRELOAD
* XXXX[:YYYYY] force loading XXXX (and YYYY...) libraries with the binary
PreLoaded libs can be emulated or native, and are treated the same way as if they were comming from the binary
#### BOX64_EMULATED_LIBS
* XXXX[:YYYYY] force lib XXXX (and YYYY...) to be emulated (and not wrapped)
Some games uses an old version of some libraries, with an ABI incompatible with native version.
Note that LittleInferno for example is auto detected, and libvorbis.so.0 is automatical added to emulated libs, and same for Don't Starve (and Together / Server variant) that use an old SDL2 too
#### BOX64_ALLOWMISSINGLIBS
Allow Box64 to continue even if a library is missing.
* 0 : Box64 will stop if a library cannot be loaded. (Default.)
* 1 : Continue even if a needed library cannot be loaded. Unadvised, this will, in most cases, crash later on.
#### BOX64_PREFER_WRAPPED
Box64 will use wrapped libs even if the lib is specified with absolute path
* 0 : Try to use emulated libs when they are defined with absolute path (Default.)
* 1 : Use Wrapped native libs even if path is absolute
#### BOX64_PREFER_EMULATED
Box64 will prefer emulated libs first (execpt for glibc, alsa, pulse, GL, vulkan and X11
* 0 : Native libs are prefered (Default.)
* 1 : Emulated libs are prefered (Default for program running inside pressure-vessel)
#### BOX64_NOPULSE
Disables the load of pulseaudio libraries.
* 0 : Load pulseaudio libraries if found. (Default.)
* 1 : Disables the load of pulse audio libraries (libpulse and libpulse-simple), both the native library and the x86 library
#### BOX64_NOGTK
Disables the loading of wrapped GTK libraries.
* 0 : Load wrapped GTK libraries if found. (Default.)
* 1 : Disables loading wrapped GTK libraries.
#### BOX64_NOVULKAN
Disables the load of vulkan libraries.
* 0 : Load vulkan libraries if found.
* 1 : Disables the load of vulkan libraries, both the native and the i386 version (can be useful on Pi4, where the vulkan driver is not quite there yet.)
#### BOX64_JITGDB
* 0 : Just print the Segfault message on segfault (default)
* 1 : Launch `gdb` when a segfault, bus error or illegal instruction signal is trapped, attached to the offending process and go in an endless loop, waiting.
When in gdb, you need to find the correct thread yourself (the one with `my_box64signalhandler` in is stack)
then probably need to `finish` 1 or 2 functions (inside `usleep(..)`) and then you'll be in `my_box64signalhandler`,
just before the printf of the Segfault message. Then simply
`set waiting=0` to exit the infinite loop.
* 2 : Launch `gdbserver` when a segfault, bus error or illegal instruction signal is trapped, attached to the offending process, and go in an endless loop, waiting.
Use `gdb /PATH/TO/box64` and then `target remote 127.0.0.1:1234` to connect to the gdbserver (or use actual IP if not on the machine). After that, the procedure is the same as with ` BOX64_JITGDB=1`.
This mode can be usefullwhen programs redirect all console output to a file (like Unity3D Games)
