Question Title How can I get the local username?

The library routine C$GETENV can be called on a local or client machine to get the user name.
Here's an example.

The "Client" keyword will be ignored if the program isn't running in thin client mode:

    move "user.name" to varname
    call client "C$GETENV" using varname, ws-username
