Version 2.2 (Aug-3-1993)
o Overview
- Added 1 new command.
- Added 7 new options.
o Added /C command to compare directories with PATH and set the
ERRORLEVEL. If ALL directories are found then 0 is returned,
otherwise 2 is returned in ERRORLEVEL.
i.e. PATH=c:\;c:\dos;d:\
PATHTOOL /C c:\dos
ERRORLEVEL is 0
i.e. PATH=c:\;c:\dos
PATHTOOL /C c:\windows
ERRORLEVEL is 2
o Added /Ke option to put the path into an environment variable `e'
after processing it, instead of PATH. The 'e' is optional if it
is already given with the /Ge option or if the /RP file contains
a variable name. This option is perfect for modifying variables
that have a similar format as "PATH". Any one using Microsoft
Compilers or LINT will love this feature to modify LIB, INCLUDE,
and HELPFILES variables.
i.e. PATHTOOL /GLIB /K /F c:\msvc10\lib
o Added /RD=f option to read a file 'f' with directories. This will
read a file written by the /WD option format. Default is {DIR}.TXT.
i.e. PATHTOOL /RD
o Added /RP=f option to read a file 'f' with a full path. This will
read a file written by the /WP option format. Default is {PATH}.BAT.
i.e. PATHTOOL /RP
o Added /YM option to allow moving a directory if it already exists
in the PATH. The /YM option is the default. Use /NM to make it
compatibile with PathTool v2.1 which didn't move the directory.
i.e. PATH=c:\;d:\;c:\dos
PATHTOOL /F c:\dos
o Added /NA & /YA options. The /NA option suppresses all options
from the "PATHTOOL" environment string. The /YA option is default.
i.e. set PATHTOOL=/NVC /NVE /NVR
PATHTOOL /NA /E c:\tmp
o Added default command of /E when a directory is given without a
command! It use to give an error on PathTool v2.1.
i.e. PATHTOOL c:\ same as PATHTOOL /E c:\
o Added showing of detected DOS and 4DOS versions after title banner.
Use /NT to remove the title banner and this new information.
o Added errors 25 and 26.
o Added serial# & registration line to /?, /H, /$.
o Changed "PATH" variable to always be forced to upper case in all
situations. The /K option will override this feature when writing
to a variable other than "PATH". Fixed situation where "PATH" was
lower case before running PATHTOOL.
o Changed /G option. If the environment variable doesn't exist,
then PathTool won't get it from the "PATH" variable. Instead,
the starting variable that PathTool uses will be empty.
o Modified error 70 to state argument number that caused error.
o Fixed /L defaults for non-registered users to: 127 for MSDOS and
255 for 4DOS/NDOS. This is mainly for compatibility sake.
o Fixed /YVR bug when there weren't at least 2 directories in final
PATH" environment string.
o Fixed /YVC & /YVE when initial "PATH" environment string drive
letters were lower case.
