Description

Retrieves the value of an environment variable. Looks first in the AutoCAD-specific FixedProfile/General section of the registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER
    Software
        Autodesk
            AutoCAD
                R25.0
                    <Install ID>
                        FixedProfile
                            General

If an entry is not found in the registry, retrieves the value from the Windows system environment table.

Note: This function will not work for AutoCAD sysvars. For AutoCAD sysvars, use acedGetVar().

If acedGetEnv() succeeds, it returns RTNORM; otherwise it returns RTERROR. This function is the complement of the acedSetEnv() function.
