If it is set up, OS/2 copies all standard drivers from the diskettes to your harddisk during the install process. If it is not set up, OS/2 will 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".
This is used by the Newsserver Changi.

The Enhanced Suspend option should be enabled on a system with D3 Cold suspend enabled, if there is insufficient, disabled, or no BIOS assistence for restoring the video state once the system is resumed. On other systems, or in other circumstances, Enhanced Suspend may also be optionally enabled, if desired.
This variable is somewhere used by the Desktop Management Information (DMI) system. I think this is used by tools like Syslog.exe and Ffts.exe.
 
SET Dmipath=E:\DMISL\BIN
To control the Enhanced Suspend feature, the following statement should be used in the CONFIG.SYS file:
SET ENH_SUSPEND=<value>
 
where <value> is one of the following:
* 0 - the Enhanced Suspend is disabled, same as no "SET ENH_SUSPEND" statement in the CONFIG.SYS;
* 1 - basic Enhanced Suspend is enabled;
* 2 - same as "1" plus saving/restoration of the graphics mode screen.
 
SET ENH_SUSPEND=1 should be satisfactory in most cases, and requires the minimum of additional memory at the time of a suspend. However, there are circumstances such as a lockup desktop, or a PM Popup, where relatively unimportant video display content remains temporarily corrupted until the lockup or Popup is ended.
 
SET ENH_SUSPEND=2 requires additional memory to save and restore the exact the desktop bit pattern fairly immediately. It may yield results similar to SET ENH_SUSPEND=1 if system memory or virtual address space is in short supply at the time of the suspend.
 
'''NOTE:''' Suspend and resume may take longer when Enhanced Suspend is enabled. During suspend, some systems will produce a text screen advising the user that the system is suspending. Likewise, upon resume, a similar message may be displayed. Drivers are readied before the video is restored. On some systems, resume feels almost instantaneous, because by the time video is available, all other hardware has been awakened and the system is ready for input.
 
There are some system states for which the Enhanced Suspend support requires a newer version of display driver to avoid display corruption upon resume from a D3 Cold suspend state. It is recommended that the video driver claims support for Enhanced Suspend. The latest SciTech SNAP, IBMGRADD, and VGA/SVGA drivers have support for Enhanced Suspend. This would include Panorama, as well.

SET DssDir=Path


While the Geyserville daemon (GSVDAEMN) controls CPU throttling, it is possible to enable the overview of the CPU and Throttle states in the Power object. To control the states overview, the following statement should be used in the CONFIG.SYS file:
Parameters:
SET SHOWEXTENDEDPOWERMENU=<value>


where <value> is one of the following:
Path can be any full path.
* NO  - the states overview are disabled, same as no "SET SHOWEXTENDEDPOWERMENU" statement in the CONFIG.SYS; (this is the default option)

====SET ENH_SUSPEND====
Is used by the Scitech Software Display Doctor for OS/2.
This is related to the software support package for Intel's SpeedStep dynamic frequency scaling technology (codenamed Geyserville). Enhanced Suspend support is designed to allow the system to refresh the display once the system is resumed from a D3 Cold suspend state. The Enhanced Suspend option should be enabled on a system with D3 Cold suspend enabled, if there is insufficient, disabled, or no BIOS assistence for restoring the video state once the system is resumed.

Parameters:
|-
 
!OS/2 2.x
Value can be in the range from 1 to ? .
This value is expressed in milliseconds. If this parameter is not set it defaults to 10 .
 
The timer resolutions available are dependent on those provided by the OS/2 system. The Java system rounds down to the nearest available resolution. 1 millisecond is always available and is the highest resolution available. The default for Java_Clock_Resolution is 10 milliseconds, and this is generally rounded to 1 millisecond accuracy.
If you need to ensure that the best Java performance is obtained when using currentTimeMillis, SET Java_Clock_Resolution = 32. This can be important when running Java benchmarks.

=Set Java..=
The character spacing in strings which use characters from different codepages has been improved in the Java-Version "JDK 1.1.7A IBM build o117-19990506". It is possible that this will adversely affect the display and printing of some character strings in existing applications. The old spacing can be retained by setting this environment variable to ON.
==SET Java_Audio_Rate==
SET Java_Old_Char_Spacing=value
Controls the playback sample rate for Java audio.


Parameter:
  SET Java_Audio_Rate=value


Value can be ON or OFF.
Parameters:


If you want to use the old spacing than use SET Java_OLD_CHAR_SPACING=ON.  
Value can be 8 or 11 or maybe some other values, but I have no more information.
A value of 8 sets the playback rate to 8000 samples per second.
A value of 11 sets the playback rate to 11025 samples per second.
If this parameter is not set it defaults to 8 .

==SET Java_Clock_Resolution==


==SET Java_WebLogs==
The environment variable Java_CLOCK_RESOLUTION allows you to specify the timer resolution you require from the currentTimeMillis method in the Java.lang.System class.


This variable will set the path to the directory into which the Java runtime will write weblog files for each started Java process.
   SET Java_Clock_Resolution=value
 
   SET Java_Weblogs=Path


Parameters:
Parameters:


Path can be any full path with drive letter .
Value can be in the range from 1 to ? .
If this parameter is not set it defaults to the Weblogs directory under the Java directory .
This value is expressed in milliseconds. If this parameter is not set it defaults to 10 .


=SET Keys=
The timer resolutions available are dependent on those provided by the OS/2 system. The Java system rounds down to the nearest available resolution. 1 millisecond is always available and is the highest resolution available. The default for Java_Clock_Resolution is 10 milliseconds, and this is generally rounded to 1 millisecond accuracy.
 
If you need to ensure that the best Java performance is obtained when using currentTimeMillis, SET Java_Clock_Resolution = 32. This can be important when running Java benchmarks.  
OS/2 can remember previous keystrokes typed on the OS/2 command line. You can recall previous keystrokes with the up arrow key. This variable enables or disables this feature.
 
note:
If keys is set to ON, ANSI extended keyboard support is disabled.
 
  SET KEYS=value
 
Default settings:
 
* SET KEYS=ON
 
Parameters:
 
Value can be ON or OFF.

Return to The Config.sys Documentation Project Main Page

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

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

Base Operating System

AUTOFAIL

SET AUTOFAIL=YES

forces computer to deliver system error to the application direct.

AUTOREFRESHFOLDERS

This variable disables the automatic refresh of folders. 

SET AUTOREFRESHFOLDERS=value

Default settings:

  • SET AUTOREFRESHFOLDERS=YES

Parameters:

Value can be YES or NO.

  • SET AUTOREFRESHFOLDERS=YES

The automatic refresh of folders is enabled.

  • SET AUTOREFRESHFOLDERS=NO

The automatic refresh of folders is disabled.

If this parameter is not set it defaults to YES.

SET ENH_SUSPEND

This is related to the software support package for Intel's SpeedStep dynamic frequency scaling technology (codenamed Geyserville). Enhanced Suspend support is designed to allow the system to refresh the display once the system is resumed from a D3 Cold suspend state. The Enhanced Suspend option should be enabled on a system with D3 Cold suspend enabled, if there is insufficient, disabled, or no BIOS assistence for restoring the video state once the system is resumed. On other systems, or in other circumstances, Enhanced Suspend may also be optionally enabled, if desired.

To control the Enhanced Suspend feature, the following statement should be used in the CONFIG.SYS file: 

SET ENH_SUSPEND=<value>

where <value> is one of the following:

  • 0 - the Enhanced Suspend is disabled, same as no "SET ENH_SUSPEND" statement in the CONFIG.SYS;
  • 1 - basic Enhanced Suspend is enabled;
  • 2 - same as "1" plus saving/restoration of the graphics mode screen.

SET ENH_SUSPEND=1 should be satisfactory in most cases, and requires the minimum of additional memory at the time of a suspend. However, there are circumstances such as a lockup desktop, or a PM Popup, where relatively unimportant video display content remains temporarily corrupted until the lockup or Popup is ended.

SET ENH_SUSPEND=2 requires additional memory to save and restore the exact the desktop bit pattern fairly immediately. It may yield results similar to SET ENH_SUSPEND=1 if system memory or virtual address space is in short supply at the time of the suspend.

NOTE: Suspend and resume may take longer when Enhanced Suspend is enabled. During suspend, some systems will produce a text screen advising the user that the system is suspending. Likewise, upon resume, a similar message may be displayed. Drivers are readied before the video is restored. On some systems, resume feels almost instantaneous, because by the time video is available, all other hardware has been awakened and the system is ready for input.

There are some system states for which the Enhanced Suspend support requires a newer version of display driver to avoid display corruption upon resume from a D3 Cold suspend state. It is recommended that the video driver claims support for Enhanced Suspend. The latest SciTech SNAP, IBMGRADD, and VGA/SVGA drivers have support for Enhanced Suspend. This would include Panorama, as well.

SET SHOWEXTENDEDPOWERMENU

This is related to the software support package for Intel's SpeedStep dynamic frequency scaling technology (codenamed Geyserville). Mobile Intel Pentium processors support additional CPU and Throttle states to maximize battery life and optimize performance. The number of CPU states depends on the processor model and maximum frequency.

While the Geyserville daemon (GSVDAEMN) controls CPU throttling, it is possible to enable the overview of the CPU and Throttle states in the Power object. To control the states overview, the following statement should be used in the CONFIG.SYS file: 

SET SHOWEXTENDEDPOWERMENU=<value>

where <value> is one of the following:

  • NO - the states overview are disabled, same as no "SET SHOWEXTENDEDPOWERMENU" statement in the CONFIG.SYS; (this is the default option)
  • YES - the states overview are enabled.

NOTE: Extended power state information is shown in English only prior to eComStation, which patches the related dll with updated resources when installed via eCSMT.

Parameters:

Value can be in the range from 1 to ? . This value is expressed in milliseconds. If this parameter is not set it defaults to 10 .

The timer resolutions available are dependent on those provided by the OS/2 system. The Java system rounds down to the nearest available resolution. 1 millisecond is always available and is the highest resolution available. The default for Java_Clock_Resolution is 10 milliseconds, and this is generally rounded to 1 millisecond accuracy. If you need to ensure that the best Java performance is obtained when using currentTimeMillis, SET Java_Clock_Resolution = 32. This can be important when running Java benchmarks.

SET UNZIPOPT

SET UNZIPOPT=<parameter>

ex: SET UNZIPOPT=-C

Parameters

  • -Z

zipinfo(1L) mode. If the first option on the command line is -Z, the remaining options are taken to be zipinfo(1L) options. See the appropriate manual page for a description of these options.

  • -A

[OS/2, Unix DLL] print extended help for the DLL's programming interface (API).

  • -c

extract files to stdout/screen (``CRT). This option is similar to the -p option except that the name of each file is printed as it is extracted, the -a option is allowed, and ASCII-EBCDIC conversion is automatically performed if appropriate. This option is not listed in the unzip usage screen.

  • -f

freshen existing files, i.e., extract only those files that already exist on disk and that are newer than the disk copies. By default unzip queries before overwriting, but the -o option may be used to suppress the queries. Note that under many operating systems, the TZ (timezone) environment variable must be set correctly in order for -f and -u to work properly (under Unix the variable is usually set automatically). The reasons for this are somewhat subtle but have to do with the differences between DOS-format file times (always local time) and Unix-format times (always in GMT/UTC) and the necessity to compare the two. A typical TZ value is ``PST8PDT (US Pacific time with automatic adjustment for Daylight Savings Time or ``summer time).

  • -l

list archive files (short format). The names, uncompressed file sizes and modification dates and times of the specified files are printed, along with totals for all files specified. If UnZip was compiled with OS2_EAS defined, the -l option also lists columns for the sizes of stored OS/2 extended attributes (EAs) and OS/2 access control lists (ACLs). In addition, the zipfile comment and individual file comments (if any) are displayed. If a file was archived from a single-case file system (for example, the old MS-DOS FAT file system) and the -L option was given, the filename is converted to lowercase and is prefixed with a caret (^).

  • -p

extract files to pipe (stdout). Nothing but the file data is sent to stdout, and the files are always extracted in binary format, just as they are stored (no conversions).

  • -t

test archive files. This option extracts each specified file in memory and compares the CRC (cyclic redundancy check, an enhanced checksum) of the expanded file with the original file's stored CRC value.

  • -T

[most OSes] set the timestamp on the archive(s) to that of the newest file in each one. This corresponds to zip's -go option except that it can be used on wildcard zipfiles (e.g., ``unzip -T \*.zip) and is much faster.

  • -u

update existing files and create new ones if needed. This option performs the same function as the -f option, extracting (with query) files that are newer than those with the same name on disk, and in addition it extracts those files that do not already exist on disk. See -f above for information on setting the timezone properly.

  • -v

be verbose or print diagnostic version info. This option has evolved and now behaves as both an option and a modifier. As an option it has two purposes: when a zipfile is specified with no other options, -v lists archive files verbosely, adding to the basic -l info the compression method, compressed size, compression ratio and 32-bit CRC. When no zipfile is specified (that is, the complete command is simply ``unzip -v), a diagnostic screen is printed. In addition to the normal header with release date and version, unzip lists the home Info-ZIP ftp site and where to find a list of other ftp and non-ftp sites; the target operating system for which it was compiled, as well as (possibly) the hardware on which it was compiled, the compiler and version used, and the compilation date; any special compilation options that might affect the program's operation ; and any options stored in environment variables that might do the same . As a modifier it works in conjunction with other options (e.g., -t) to produce more verbose or debugging output; this is not yet fully implemented but will be in future releases.

  • -z

display only the archive comment.

USE_HOSTS_FIRST

If Use_Hosts_First is set up, tcp/ip will first look in the local file ..\Etc\Hosts for the dotted IP address for a specific Hostname on the internet.

Let me explain - Whenever you connect to the internet and you access a host ( for example http://www.netlabs.org ), your browser must know the dotted IP address ( for example 195.65.67.48 ) for the host. So the Browser contact a Domain name Server (DNS) and ask for the IP address. This takes some time, to speed up internet connection you can define in the Hosts file the hostnames and the IP addresses.

OS/2 will only use Hosts file if Use_Hosts_First is set to 1. You can define all kind of hosts www-server, mail-server, news-server, ftp-server or whatever else. To get the IP address for a host type "host" and the hostname in an OS/2 window. The actual Path for the host file is defined by the Etc environment variable.
