list

list forces the output to be written to the log.

proc registry list;
run;

export

export is supposed to write the contents of the registry to the specified file.

For an unknown reason, the written file is different from and much shorter than the text written to the log.

proc registry
     list
     export='/share/home/tq84/sas/registry.exported';
run;
