Is there any way to display the contents of a single DOS variable?
I know you can display all current variables by typing SET, but there
doesn't appear to be any way to display variables individually.

I'm trying to setup a user log for our novell server and I thought
since the users login time and username can be stored in dos
variables, the simplest way to accomplish what I want to do would be 
to redirect the contents of these variables to a file... but alas
DOS doesn't seem to want to cooperate...
