- COMMAND: DPATH (Data Path) DOCUMENTATION : On-line
-
- FUNCTION: Provides an extended directory path search capability for finding
- data and overlay files.
-
- FORMAT: DPATH [[d:]path[[;[d:]path]...]]
-
- TYPE: Public domain software
-
- REMARKS: DPATH utilizes the same syntax as PATH to extend the search path
- for non-executable files. The first time DPATH is executed, it
- becomes resident, and thereafter, data and overlay files not found
- in the current directory are searched for in the directories
- specified in the last DPATH command. Files opened for writing
- will be opened in the current directory. To set a new search path,
- enter DPATH with a new list of paths. These new paths replace any
- previously defined. DPATH with no arguements displays a list
- of the search paths currently in effect. DPATH will not work
- with some programs that run only under DOS 2.0
