That would be great!  I know I've been eagerly waiting for the environment variable support that you've supposedly had implemented for about a year now.

Oh yeah ... I did do that. It now has a function called 'ExpandEnvVar'.

/*
 Function to replace tokens in the form ...
    %ENVNAME%
    $ENVNAME  ( Terminated by a non-alpha character )
    ${ENVNAME}
    $(ENVNAME)
 with environment data.

 Notes:
 (1) '%%' is replaced by a single '%'
 (2) '$$' is replaced by a single '$'
 (3) The forms $(...) and ${...} can be nested.
      eg. ${FOO${BAR}} - If 'BAR' is defined as "test" then this tries to
                         find out what 'FOOtest' is defined as.
 (4) The forms $(...) and ${...} can optionally have default values.
      eg. $(FOO=yes) - if 'FOO' not defined it is expanded to 'yes'
          $(BAR=${QWERTY}} - if 'BAR' not defined it is expanded to
                             whatever 'QWERTY' is defined as.
 (5) The form $(...) is expanded recursively.
      e.g. $(FOO) - if 'FOO' is defined as "${BAR}" then the result
                    is returned as whatever 'BAR' is defined as.

Sweet!  Now just release that puppy, already!  Or stop teasing us with descriptions of functionality we can't have. :-P

I'm at the office right now but the master source is back at home, so I'll get onto tonight after work. As I remember, it wasn't too happy with the latest DMD2 compiler ... but I can do without sleep to fix that ;-)
