Changing Environment scroll order

This procedure describes how to change the order in which Environments appear at the command line when you use the Change Environment (. cv) command.

To change the scroll order of Environments

  1. Using lx or an editor of your choice, open the file /etc/lawson.env.
  2. Cut the text defining the Environment you want to move and paste it into the correct position within the file. For example, if you want your new Environment to be the next available Environment to scroll after the default Environment, paste the text immediately after the default Environment.
  3. Save and close the file.

    The changes you made take effect the next time a user runs the Change Environment command.

    Example

    lawenv is the default Environment that all users should have access to; lawenvdev is a previously existing Environment that only a few users need access to; lawenvtest is a new installed Environment that many users need access to. Because it is the newest Environment, lawenvtest is the last to appear in the file and users need to perform the Change Environment command (. cv) twice to access it. By moving lawenvtest above lawenvdev in the file, you make it accessible with only one Change Environment command. lawenvdev now requires two Change Environment commands.
