built-in variable   UTIL_Env    

Purpose

UTIL_Env is a global shelf that is populated with the environment variables from the environment used to launch the program. Each environment variable name is stored as the key of a shelf item, and the environment variable value is stored as the value of that shelf item.

You must include the System Utilities ("omutil.xin") to access the UTIL_Env shelf.

You can use UTIL_Env just like any other shelf. For instance, you can output the value of a particular environment variable like this:

  include "omutil.xin"
  process
     output UTIL_Env key "path"

Note that while you can change items on the UTIL_Env shelf, this will not affect the environment used to launch applications using the system-call action.
