The full list of available Variable names from within each Namespace can be derived from a representative config.xml (in each client’s Working Directory or in the Analyze database if so collected).
Note that the config.xml file is recreated upon every client start – after closing an IBM Notes Client, any therein stored variables are NOT read back ever.
NOTE that namespaces and variables are NOT write-protected. You must not change important system variables (e.g. notes:client_directory, mc:working_directory or similar).
