  12. The problem with the original poster's PATH statement is the spaces after
  13. the semicolons. Each group of characters is taken as a parameter, and you can only
  14. have one. The equal sign is fine, if not bracketed in spaces. I use it to
  15. keep an editor from inserting a line break there.
