Environment variables are stored by OS/2 in memory and can be called by any program. They are used by many programs to store information (for example, the install path) or some configuration information. If you want to see a list of all installed environment variables and their values, type "Set" in an OS/2 window. If the list is too long, you can redirect the screen output to a file, simply type this "Set >output.txt".

[edit] General Tips

You must note that the SET command in Config.sys behaves slightly different from it's behaviour in command line.

So, when you issue the following comands in a OS/2 session:

 SET TEMP=C:\TMP 
 SET TMP=%TEMP% 

you get:

 TEMP=C:\TMP 
 TMP=C:\TMP 

But, if you add the same lines to config.sys:

 SET TEMP=C:\TMP 
 SET TMP=%TEMP% 

you get:

 TEMP=C:\TMP 
 TMP=%TEMP% 

but not TMP=C:\TMP. The enviroment variable TMP now has the value composed by the letters "%", "T", "E", "M", "P", "%". For that reason, in Config.sys, you must write the values explicitly as follows:

 SET TEMP=C:\TMP
 SET TMP=C:\TMP

[edit] SET CopyFromFloppy

This environment variable is only useful in your install diskettes config.sys file. If you find it in your normal config.sys file, than you can delete it. If it is set up, Os/2 copy all standard drivers from the diskettes to your harddisk during the install process. If it is not set up, OS/2 copy all drivers from the CD-Rom. If your hardware needs newer drivers than that on the install CD-Rom, you can copy the new drivers to the install diskettes. And set in the config.sys on the install diskettes the CopyfromFloppy variable to "On".

  SET CopyFromFloppy=Value

Parameters:

Value can be On or 1 .

           System attribute 

• /B

Don't show the heading and summary information.

• /F

Show files with full path but without date, time and size.

• /L

Displays all information in lowercase.

• /N

List files on FAT drives in the same manner as on HPFS drives (i.e.

date, time, size, EA size, name)

• /O:

Displays files sorted by following criteria. You can use any logical

combination of sort attributes. Standard is /O:GN.

        o G Directories first
        o -G Directories last
        o N Sorted by filename alphabetically
        o -N Sorted by filename in reverse alphabetical order
        o E Sorted by file extension alphabetically
        o -E Sorted by file extension in reverse alphabetical order
        o D Sorted by date from oldest to newest
        o -D Sorted by date from newest to oldest
        o S Sorted by size from smallest to biggest
        o -S Sorted by size from biggest to smallest 

• /P

Pauses after each full screen of information and waits for a

keystroke.

• /R

Displays long names on FAT drives if available.

• /S

Recursive search and displays all sub-directories.

• /W

Displays only file names. No other information.

See the example below.

To set the default for the Dir command to show the output sorted by

file name, list the directories first, and pause after each full

screen of display, add this line to your config.sys file:

  SET DIRCMD=/O:GN/P
