Is this because I don't know how to use it or something could be improved? Usually I'm not sure the exact name of a variable but want to look it up. Recently I installed rjags, with the JAGS-3.4.0's lib, include, modules information provided during compilation. When I load rjags, I was told that it linked to JAGS 3.3.0 (a package also available in my environment). This made me think there must be a variable to make that to happen. What can I do to make rjags to link to JAGS 3.4.0?

Try this:
str(as.list(Sys.getenv()))
or this:
View(as.matrix(Sys.getenv()))
