AmigaOS 3.1 Command Reference

GET


Format:
GET <name>

Template:
NAME/A

Purpose:
To get the value of a local variable.

Path:
Internal

Specification:


GET is used to retrieve and display the value of a local environment
variable. The value is displayed in the current window.

Local environment variables are only recognized by the Shell in which they
are created, or by any Shells created from a NEWSHELL command executed in
the original Shell. If you open an additional Shell by opening the Shell
icon or by using the Execute Command menu item, previously created local
environment variables will not be available.

Example:

1> GET editor
Extras:Tools/MEmacs
