Editing EnvVars
XY has a nice display of EnvVars - but now I am looking for a way to easily edit more vars simultaneously - I'm dreaming of a 3col-grid with category, name & value. Is there perhaps a script to this - or can someone recommend another src for this?

Re: Editing EnvVars
I don't grasp why XY (as a file manager) should manage env variables but instead of using the scripting engine it's much easier to just use:

Re: Editing EnvVars
Was just wondering b- and ecause XY (and the various scripts) offer such a variety of functions, it seemed at least possible. And it would have been waste to then use something else ;-) But RapidEE looks good, thanks! :-)

Re: Editing EnvVars
Nobody said it isn't. Actually I coded it just for fun. But why reinvent the wheel when something more sophisticated already exists...it seemed at least possible

Re: Editing EnvVars
Remember that editing EnvVars within XY has at least one complication: You have to restart XYplorer (and most everything else) to actually take up the updated environment. And restarting XY from within XY won't help here

Re: Editing EnvVars
Additionally when you want to set system env vars, you have to run setx from an elevated xy instance / from a self elevating .cmd / .bat script
