Attaching the class "simple.list" to the output of Sys.getenv() gives it
a nicer print method:
> structure(Sys.getenv(), class="simple.list")
_
ALCKPath C:\\Program Files\\Lenovo\\AutoLock
ALLUSERSPROFILE C:\\ProgramData
...
windir C:\\Windows
(I don't know why print.simple.list adds the line with a hyphen above the 2nd
column at the top.)
