841.0. "Two Environment Files?" by COOKIE::CHAVEZ (Dale C. - CXO3 Colo Spgs) Fri Aug 21 1987 17:17

Is there any way to use a local environment file, in addition to
the DOCUMENT environment file?  I have a bunch of tags that I've
defined that I would like to add to an environment file, and I
really don't want to muck with the system environment file.

Thanks
Dale

    Define tag$local_tags to point to your def'n file.

RE: .0

Bad question on my part.  Let me rephrase it.  Is there anyway I
can point to two different LSE SDML environment files?  I'm going
to create my own environment file that provides expansion for the
tags I've defined here locally.

    You can use LSEDIT/INITIALIZATION=filespec or define
    LSE$INITIALIZATION in your login.com file to be your
    additional placeholder definitions.

841.4Use LSE$ENVIRONMENT, see TLE::LSEDITTOKLAS::FELDMANPDS, our next successMon Aug 24 1987 14:0114
    LSE also permits multiple environment files.  The simplest way is
    to define LSE$ENVIRONMENT to be a search list.  Since LSE uses two
    different logical names, namely LSE$ENVIRONMENT and
    LSE$SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT, your personal stuff should go into
    LSE$ENVIRONMENT, while you leave LSE$SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT alone.
    
    LSE loads things correctly, so that items in your personal environment
    file will override any items in the system environment file.  The
    trick is to build your environment file correctly.  See the help
    on the SAVE ENVIRONMENT command.
    
    Questions specific to LSE should go into the TLE::LSEDIT conference.

Thanks, that did the trick.
