This package permits you to set ;; environment variables to be passed to any sub-process run under Emacs. ;;; Code: ;;;###autoload (defun setenv (variable value) "Set the value of the environment variable named VARIABLE to VALUE. VARIABLE and VALUE should both be strings. This function works by modifying `process-environment'." (interactive "sSet environment variable: \nsSet %s to value: ") (if (string-match "=" variable) (error "Environment variable name contains `='") (let ((pattern (concat "\\`" (regexp-quote (concat variable "=")))) (scan process-environment)) (while scan (cond ((string-match pattern (car scan)) (setcar scan (concat variable "=" value)) (setq scan nil)) ((null (setq scan (cdr scan))) (setq process-environment (cons (concat variable "=" value) process-environment)))))))) (provide 'setenv) ;;; setenv.el ends here
