-
- Have you ever wanted to set your path to a long string and couldn't?
- If so, this program is for you!!
-
- Yes, if you have the environment space, SETPATH will
- allow you to have a path string as long as you like.
-
- To use SETPATH from the DOS prompt or in a batch file type:
- setpath <filename>
-
- where <filename> is a file containing the string you want to use as your
- path.
-
- Note: ***** Please DO NOT INCLUDE PATH= in this file. Things will get very
- confused if you do.
-
- You can continue the string on more than one line -- all the lines are
- concatenated together to form the string.
-
- That's all there is to it!!
-
- One further note, if you don't have enough environment space to do this,
- you can use the very good program envsize.arc which can be found on many
- bulletin boards. This program is from a company, which unfortunately,
- seems no longer to exist.
- If you are using DOS 3.2 or higher you can use the shell config.sys command as follows:
- shell=<full path name of command.com> /e:<size in bytes> /p
- where /e specifies the environment size and /p indicates a primary command
- processor. The /p is necessary for this to work.
-
- Revision History
-
- Version 1.0 Original Release
-
- Version 1.1: Fixed a bug whereby the word path= anywhere in the environment
- would cause the program to incorrectly assume that this was the
- beginning of the variable path= .
-
- Version 1.2: Added a feature which may support DOS 3.3 users. If this doesn't
- work in DOS 3.3, please call and maybe we can fix it, I don't have DOS 3.3
- here.
-
- Version 1.3: I think I finally have DOS 3.3 and 4.0 working successfully.
- There is still a problem on dual floppy systems, but you probably don't
- need the program if you have one of these.
-
- Version 1.4: I broke support of older versions of DOS,
- but I think it works now.
