	The [[Env$]] function, which is used to interrogate the BR environment, has been expanded to permit the simulation of setting an environment variable with configuration statements. ~~The ENV$ function is case insensitive~~.		The [[Env$]] function, which is used to interrogate the BR environment, has been expanded to permit the ''simulation'' of setting an environment variable with configuration statements or with the SETENV system function. As indicated above, either a CONFIG command, or the BRCONFIG.SYS file may set a simulated environment variable:

	CONFIG SETENV SIZE '10 x 24'		CONFIG SETENV SIZE '10 x 24'

	This allows a program to use ENV$("SIZE") to retrieve the value '10 x 24', excluding the quotes. In the event SIZE was previously defined in the environment it will ~~appear as set~~ to the new value for the duration of the BR session.		Also the SETENV system function can do the same thing:

			SETENV("SIZE","10 x 24")

			This allows a program to use ENV$("SIZE") to retrieve the value '10 x 24', excluding the quotes. In the event SIZE was previously defined in the environment it will be reset to the new value for the duration of the BR session. ENV$ is case insensitive so ENV$("SIZE"), ENV$("SiZe") or ENV$("size") will each produce the same result.


	SetEnv("[[SCRN_SIZE_POSN]]") will save the current screen size and position for both the new console and the command console, provided they are not minimized to the task bar. The positions of any window that is minimized ([[Open Window\|graphical window]] or [[command console]]) will not be saved.		SetEnv("[[SCRN_SIZE_POSN]]") will save the current screen size and position for both the new console and the command console, provided they are not minimized to the task bar. The positions of any window that is minimized ([[Open Window\|graphical window]] or [[command console]]) will not be saved.

			As of 4.2, the use of SCRN_SIZE_POSN will also save the operator's insert/overstrike preference.
