[resolved] How to get an environment variable from the system into a context var?

I am looking to implement the following scenario:
Setup a system environment variable on the server that Talend is running on. The value of this variable will be a path to a folder containing XML files that I use for various purposes. At runtime in my job, I would like to use some Talend component to retreive the value of the environment variable and store it in a context variable. I can then use that context variable as the leading source string for my tXMLInput.
I see a tSetEnv, but I do not see a tGetEnv comnponent.
Any easy way to do this?
thanks,
Dave

There is a custom component for this in Talend Exchange - tGetEnvVarInput
