Purpose:Edit an environment variable, alias or function definition.

 

Format:ESET [/A /D /F /S /U /V] name

 

nameThe name of an environment variable,function or alias to edit.

 

/A(lias)

/S(ystem variable)

/D(efault environment)

/U(ser variable)

/F(unction)

/V(olatile variable)

 

 

See also: ALIAS, FUNCTION, SET, UNALIAS, UNFUNCTION, and UNSET.

 

Usage:

 

ESET allows you to edit an environment variable, alias or function definition using line editing commands (see Command Line Editing).

 

For example, to edit the executable file search path:

 

eset path

path=c:\;c:\dos;c:\util

 

To create and then edit an alias:

 

alias d = dir /d/j/p

eset d

d=dir /d/j/p

 

Unless a specific data type is specified by one of the option switches /A, /D, /F, /S, /U or /V, ESET will search for name among environment variables first and then among aliases, thus if name is both a variable and an alias, ESET will edit the variable name, and ignore the alias name.

 

To edit variables defined in the Windows Registry or to edit functions, you must use the appropriate option switch.

 

Note: You cannot use ESET with GOSUB variables.

 

If you have enabled global aliases (see ALIAS), any changes made to an alias with ESET will immediately affect all other copies of TCC which are using the same alias list. Similarly, if you have enabled global functions (see FUNCTION), any changes made to a function using ESET /F will immediately affect all other copies of TCC which are using the same function list.

 

Registry Variables: Default, System, User, and Volatile registry variables can be manipulated with the ESET command's /D, /S, /U and /V switches, respectively. For example, to edit volatile variable myvar from the registry, use:

 

eset /v myvar

 

Use caution when directly modifying registry variables as they may be essential to various Windows processes and applications.

 

Options:

 

/AEdit the named alias even if an environment variable of the same name exists. If you have an alias and an environment variable with the same name, you must use this switch to be able to edit the alias.

 

/DEdit a "default" variable in the registry (HKU\.DEFAULT\Environment).

 

/FEdit a user-defined function.

 

/SEdit a "system" variable in the registry  (HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment).

 

/UEdit a "user" variable in the registry (HKCU\Environment).

 

/VEdit a "volatile" variable in the registry (HKCU\Volatile Environment).
