seth

Displays the environment variables in a nicely formatted list, with new options!

Usage:

>seth /?
seth.exe v1.3.19.51115
Copyright (C) 2003-2015 Kody Brown (@kodybrown).

  Displays the environment variables with various options.

USAGE: seth [options] [filter]

  /?, -h          show this help
  -p, --pause     pauses after each screenful (applies -pp)
  -pp             pauses at the end

  --no-wrap       outputs formatted output, but without wrapping envar values.
                  this format is used when the output is being redirected.
  --wrap=n        forces wrapping at n characters instead of the window width.
                  enforces minimum value of 20.

  --align=[l|r]   aligns the envar name left or right. the default is left.

  --indent=n      sets the envar name indentation. the default is 16 characters.
                  use `all` to align to the longest envar name.
  --no-indent     sets the envar name indentation to 0.

  --lower         lower-cases the envar names.
  --upper         upper-cases the envar names.
                  if --lower and --upper are not specified, the envar name is
                  not modified.

  --machine       shows only the machine-level environment variables.
  --process       shows only the process-level environment variables.
  --user          shows only the user environment variables.
  --all           shows all environment variables regardless of where it came
                  from. this is the default behavior.

Filter options:

  --name          indicates to only filter by comparing against the envar name.
  --value         indicates to only filter by comparing against the envar's
                  value.
                  the filter is compared against both the name and value by
                  default.

  --regex         indicates that the [filter] is a regular expression. you can
                  also prefix the filter with `regex:` as in `seth regex:
                  AppData$`.

  REGEX NOTE: if you are including any of the special dos symbols in your regex
              (such as '^', '(', ')', '<', '>', etc.), you must wrap them in
              quotes, for instance `seth --regex "^AppData"`.

Example output:

This was run with the console width to 80. (I also removed a bunch of lines.)
