I can't think of any reason why setenv and set would not work, now.

An emelFM2 internal variable can be stored by a command of the form 
'NAME=VALUE', retrieved by '$NAME', and cleared by 'NAME='. A command '=VALUE' 
will list the name of any variable with that value, and just '=' will list all 
internal variables with their values.

<Up> or <Down> keypress.
BTW, as of the recent pre-release, <Ctrl><Down> pops up a menu of the commands 
history, the same as when the combobox button is clicked.

Need 2 actual keypresses - <Down> then <Enter>
