import os

conffile = 'env_check.conf'  # Set the variable conffile
conffilename = os.path.join(confdir, conffile)  # Set the variable conffilename by joining confdir and conffile together

for env_check in open(conffilename):  # Open the config file and read all the settings
    env_check = env_check.strip()  # Set the variable as itself, but strip the extra text out
    print('[{}]'.format(env_check))  # Format the Output to be in Square Brackets
    newenv = os.getenv(
        env_check)  # Set the variable newenv to get the settings from the OS what is currently set for the settings out the configfile

    if newenv is None:  # If it doesn't exist
        print(env_check, 'is not set')  # Print it is not set
    else:  # Else if it does exist
        print('Current Setting for {}={}\n'.format(env_check, newenv)  # Print out the details)
