There are a few exceptions, but I believe you are correct. For most things, you would have to use a client-side command like "set >vars.txt" then use C$COPY to get the file to your server and then read it.
The exceptions: A couple of values in the ACCEPT FROM structures come from the workstation environment variables:
CLIENT-MACHINE-NAME and CLIENT-USER-NAME from TERMINAL-INFO structure.
USER-ID and STATION-ID from SYSTEM-INFORMATION.
Finally, when using @[DISPLAY]: there are a few pre-defined system paths you can use - see the Acuconnect manual, subsection on copying files between the client and the server.
