set(shell)

NAME

set — set a shell variable

SYNOPSIS

set [name=[val1 [val2]...]]

DESCRIPTION

Set or display shell variables. When used with a single shell variable name, set displays the value of that shell variable. When used with no arguments, set displays the values of all current shell variables.

EXAMPLES

An important use of set is to specify base , which is a comma-separated list of URLs that will be searched for classes. (See run_java(doc) for more information on base ). For example,

lsh% set base=file:///cf0/,http://chopin/classes/,http://chopin/AnotherApp.jar

sets the search path to the directory (note the trailing slash) /cf0 , the directory classes served by the host chopin , and the JAR file AnotherApp.jar served by the host chopin .

To check the value of base

lsh% set base

To unset base :

lsh% set base=
