thats what I thought.

can I get some comments and critiques on my solution below:


/etc/profile.d/winvars.sh


#! /bin/sh

cd /proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Session\ Manager/Environment/

for i in * ; do

  bash -c "set -u ; echo \$$i" 2&> /dev/null || export $i="`cat $i`"

done
