I’m sure this has to do with programming/coding, in e-text editor, under edit>settings, there’s a tab called “environment”, when clicked on you see 2 columns, the left if titled KEY, and the right is titled VALUE. I Googled it and I think it might be the equivalent of textmate’s Environment Variables, here’s their wikipedia page that shows a screenshot. I just don’t understand what ‘Project Specific Environment Variables’ are, and what you would use them for, an example? How would I use this?

I’m pretty sure this will be an acceptable question for stackoverflow, if not, then I apologize.

    I just don’t understand what ‘Project Specific Environment Variables’ are, and what you would use them for

    Most command line compiler tools uses environment varibales to control the compile and build process.

    For example INCLUDE, LIB and LIBPATH are typical environment variables used by Windows based C/C++ command line compilers.

    [give] an example?

    Take for example the Microsoft C/C++ compiler. To run this compiler from the command line you need to setup a larger number of environment variables.

    Infact this enter code herecompile needs so many environment variables, Microsoft even provides the vsvars32.bat file which does nothing more than correctly setup the environment variables.
