In Unix, how can I find the current values of all my environment variables and functions?

To find the current values of all your environment variables and functions in Unix, if you are using the sh, ksh, or bash shell, at the prompt, enter:

set

If you are using the csh or tcsh shell, enter:

printenv

The resulting lists show all environment variables (e.g., home, shell) and functions, and their values, both default and user-defined. On most systems, entering setenv will display the same results as printenv.

For more information about the printenv or set commands, at the Unix prompt, enter either of the following commands:

man printenv man set

At Indiana University, for personal or departmental Linux or Unix systems support, see At IU, how do I get support for Linux or Unix?
