XSET

XSET allows you to put anything you want into an environment variable.You can then use it just as if you had created it with the standard SET command.

XSET is the most powerful environment variable manipulation program you have ever seen. It also has a very easy and intuitive user interface (very close to the SET command) - you only need to use the functionality you need, you do not have to worry about the functionality you do not use. It is not a resident program; so it will not interfere with any of your other applications.

XSET is fully compatible with Windows, MS-DOS (also PC-DOS, DR-DOS, 4DOS, NDOS, FreeDOS), OS/2, ...

Here are some key features of "XSET":

￭ Catch the output of any command (internal or external) or program and put it into an environment variable

￭ Manages variable contents of more than 128 characters (your path can now be as long as you want)

￭ Built-in commands to modify the output of a program or a string given on the command-line (extract a part of a string, ...)

￭ Built-in full floating-point calculation functionality: You can program incremental loops, input a calculation string and output the resulting number, ...

￭ Built-in commands to give you access to a lot of system data (date, time, file attributes, CPU type,...)

￭ Built-in commands to clear the whole environment or restore a previously saved one

￭ High-level input/output user interface (line-editing, colors, windows, boxes, ...)
