   No it doesn't set any environment variables. I've never found any reason to   
   need that.   
      
   When you are executing a door command you can use %N for the node number and %P   
   for the path to the door drop files.  Mystic replaces those codes with the   
   values I metioned when it executes the command.   
      
   If you execute a batch file like this on a menu:   
      
   Command: DX   
      Data: c:\mystic\doors\mydoor.bat %N %P   
      
   Then in your mydoor.bat file the node number would be %1 and the path to the   
   door drop files would be %2 (because the first thing sent to the batch file was   
   the node number, and the second was the path to where the drop files like   
   door.sys exist).
