I use the GetEnv function from the Linux unit quite often. In version 1.9.4 it seems to have disappeared. I browsed through the manuals, but did not find an alternative Has anybody got a suggestion?

In this case:

Use the OS dependant routines as much as possible, so Sysutils.getenvironmentvariable

In general:

- Unit Linux is totally deprecated, but available as oldlinux (but I advise seriously against using it)
- Most similar calls are prefixed with "fp" and are in units unix and baseunix, however note that the errorhandling is now C compatible.

Ah! That one's not documented [yet], as far as I can see. Thank you very much, again!

Yes, you told us that already :) And I certainly try to follow that advice.
