Hi Emacs lovers out there,

i wonder if I can make desktop-save-mode remember environment variables
I set with setenv.

Any hint on that?

Thx && have a nice day!

Basti

`C-h f setenv' says "This function works by modifying `process-environment'."

`C-h v desktop-globals-to-save' explains what you need to modify.

Well I can't find anything about environment or process in
desktop-globals-to-save therefore I guess I cannot save my environment
variables :(

Thx anyway && greets

as the function setenv exists, which may read values stored, should be a 
way to perform this.

Cheers,

Andreas

Try saving the process-environment variable.

I wouldn't do that, sounds like it cause a lot of hick-ups.
How about using a wrapper (or advice) on setenv that manipulates the
process environment and adds the manipulation to a user variable
`my-desktop-process-environment' which gets saved and restored with
desktop?
and then map setenv onto  my-desktop-process-environment with
desktop-after-read-hook.
