Acces Cshell environmt variable

[Anto35]

if [info exists env(HOME)] {
set dir $env(HOME)
} else {
# the environment var isn't set, use a default
puts "Pas de variable home"
set dir "/tmp"

I don't see anything wrong with the code you posted, and it worked fine on both my Windows 2000 and Linux systems.

In what way is it "failing" for you? About the only "typical" problem I can think of with code like this is if you're running it from the Unix cron utility, which has a very limited set of environment variables set. (On my Mandrake Linux 8.1 system, the environment variables, as specified in /etc/crontab, include a setting of HOME to "/".) - Ken Jones, President, ken@avia-training.com
