I know that in LISP one can simply declare a global variable, or use either Get/SetEnv, or vl-registry-write/read... or in .NET since there is no global variable, one can simply store a 'parameters' Object to Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.UserData Hashtable (I think I got the Namespace right?), but how does one create their own
custom system variable(s)?
I've read Kean's
article , where toward the end he mentions that in 2011 and newer, you can use a similar .REG file to create your own system variables.
Unfortunately, at present, permissions to HKLM hive is a problem for me. I've put in a request to IT, but it is unlikely to be granted.
I noticed that HKCU hive has a few Variables folders as well, but limited testing has been unsuccessful. Being able to create custom system variable(s) would prove useful for both LISP & .NET initiatives.
TIA
