Hello,
I had to reinstall windows 2000 on my Dell laptop. The support folks helped me
to save customizations in my environment variables by exporting the registry
at:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment
I want to selectively cut and past snippets from the exported registry to the
panel MyComputer->Properties->Advanced->EnvironmentVariables. However, when I
open the exported registry with my favourite editor (vim), some of the entries
appear to be in double-digit hex. For example, the PATH is a series of hex
numbers separated by commas. I don't want to cut and paste that into the GUI
panel for environment variables.
Is there a way to get the text version of these environment variables?
Thanks.
Fred
