in Allegro 4.2:

(sys:getenv "PATH")

and this will show your path variable...

replace PATH with others as appropriate.

I think (sys:setenv "PATH" value) is also good.

Yes, but it would be more idiomatic in modern lisp to express it as

     (setf (sys:getenv ...) ...)

This is implemented in the forthcoming Allegro 4.3.
