Edit the file ~/.Xdefaults (create it in your home directory if it does not exist) and add the following line: *loginShell:true Save the changes and logout/login. Any terminals that you open will have /etc/profile executed automatically (so that STAF's InstallShield environment variable updates will be read).

This is done by default, so you should not need to set any environment variables unless you have special requirements beyond that of most users of TeX. If you find that you do need to set some environment variables you should read the help file on Kpathsea library. The library's purpose is to look up a file in a list of directories specified by the user.

CMake names environment variables using an ENV prefix and surrounding the names in curly braces. Here is an example: MESSAGE("$ENV{PATH}") Reading variables will work in any version of CMake. Writing to them works in CMake 2.2 and higher using the following syntax: SET(ENV{HELLO} "World") Note that there is currently no way to tell apart an empty environment variable value from a variable that is not set at all.

Altering the global environment is platform dependent, and there are limits no matter what you do. In Windows NT, all environment variables are actually registry entries. The system initializes the process environment block based of the registry, and also the environment block of the process that creates the process. Applications can choose to be aware of changes to environment variables by paying attention to the WM_SETTINGCHANGE message.

Path file values can be retrieved from the process' environment in total or in part by using the following syntax in the value field: where env_var_name is an environment variable. For example, a keyword/value entry in a path file might be written: One use for such a facility is to maintain static or configured versions of path files that can be used in different pipelines. The path file values can be tailored to each pipeline through the environment of the process in such a setup.

Login as the administrator and from the Start menu select Settings | Control Panel. Double click the System icon and on the Environment tab click the PATH variable. Type the path to Blat or Postmail in the Value box and click Set. Do not edit the autoexec.bat file! CGI programming is very intricate and complicated and most error messages are very confusing. This section aims to help you through the most common types of problems that arise with CGI scripts and web servers.

Most of you will be using default - Common desktop window manager that came with Solaris. If you need to run your own window manager, please read on. You need to have /opt/X11R6/bin (Solaris 2.x) or /usr/openwin/bin in your path. In your home directory you should create a file ".xinitrc". ".xinitrc" is the script used to start up X and it is invoked when you type "xinit".

Starting in maven 2.0.1, you can reference windows and unix environment variables inside your pom.xml or settings.xml using an expression of the form:

However, SLIB provides getenv. Particular implementations may provide functions, e.g. Guile provides getenv.

Save it with any name and run it on your browser. The script returns the default Environment variables. Five important environment variables are available to your CGI script to help in identifying the end user. HTTP_FROM This environment variable is, theoretically, set to the email address of the user. However, many browsers do not set it at all, and most browsers that do support it allow the user to set any value for this variable.

Alpha systems have a variety of variables with values set up within the SRM system console. These environment variables control the particular behaviour of the console program and the system hardware, the particular console interface presented to the operating system, various default values for the operating system bootstrap, and related control mechanisms---in other words, "the environment variables provide an easily extensible mechanism for managing complex console state.

You can get a listing of environment variables from your own server with the following two-line Perl program:

For Jim Hall's Help program, you need to set the PAGER and HELPPATH environment variables in Autoexec.bat. Reasonable values are: Note that Joe Cosentino has written an html Help program, and we will switch to that when we have enough support for it. Unless otherwise stated, FD-DOC HOWTO documents are copyrighted by their respective authors.

The syntax for setting your path is slightly dependent on which shell you are using. Most people end up with a C-shellish shell (like tcsh or csh) instead of a Bourne-ish shell (like sh, bash, ksh). If you aren't sure what shell you are running, look at the output of either echo $shell or echo $SHELL To read all the particulars for setting environment variables you should look at the man page for your shell (i.e.man bash for bash, or man tcsh for tcsh). For Bourne like shells (bash, sh, ksh..
