/* $DOC$
* $FUNCNAME$
* FT_GETE()
* $CATEGORY$
* Environment
* $ONELINER$
* Return the entire current environment
* $SYNTAX$
* FT_GETE( [ @<xReceiveVar> ] ) -> nNumStrings
* $ARGUMENTS$
* <xReceiveVar> is the variable to receive the environment data.
*
* <xReceiveVar> can be a character type variable, in which case
* the function will place all environment strings in the variable
* separated by carriage return/line feeds (chr 13 + chr(10)).
*
* <xReceiveVar> can be an array type, in which case the function
* will place each string in an array element. The array MUST be
* declared with the proper number of elements prior to passing it
* to the function. This can be done by calling FT_GETE() without
* parameters first to get the number of strings in the environment.
*
* Note that the argument MUST be passed by reference. Since arrays
* are by nature passed by reference, the "@" symbol is optional when
* passing an array.
*
* If no argument is passed, FT_GETE() merely returns the number
* of strings in the environment.
* $RETURNS$
* FT_GETE() returns the total number of strings found in the
* current program's environment.
* $DESCRIPTION$
* This function stores ALL of the current program's environment
* variables in either a block of text lines or in an array. It is
* useful for looking at the entire environment at once, or recording
* a snapshot of it to a file for later inspection, such as when a
* program error occurs. If the value of ONE SPECIFIC variable is
* desired, use Clipper's built-in GETE() function.
*
* This function uses the undocumented internal variable "_environ",
* as well as the functions _strcpy(), _strcat(), and _strlen() from
* CLIPPER.LIB
* $EXAMPLES$
* Get the environment in text form and browse it:
*
* cEnvBlock := ""
* nNumStrings := FT_GETE(@cEnvBlock)
* @ 0, 0 to MAXROW() - 1, MAXCOL()
* @ MAXROW(), 0 say 'Browse strings, press ESC to exit...'
* MEMOWRIT(cEnvBlock, 1, 1, MAXROW() - 2,MAXCOL() - 1, .F.)
*
* Get the environment in text form and write it to a file:
*
* cEnvBlock := ""
* FT_GETE(@cEnvBlock)
* MEMOWRIT("ENVIRON.TXT", cEnvBlock)
*
* Get the environment in Array form:
*
* aEnvArray := ARRAY(FT_GETE())
* FT_GETE(aEnvArray)
* ? aEnvArray[1] // "COMSPEC=C:\COMMAND.COM"
* ? aEnvArray[2] // "PATH=C:\;C:\DOS;C:\UTIL;C:\CLIP50\BIN"
* ... etc ...
* $END$
