- ZPATH (for ZSDOS only) permits setting the Internal DOS path as well as a
- ZCPR3 path. It is a modification of ZCPR tool PATH.COM.
-
- Since the purpose of ZPATH is to dynamically alter system parameters, no
- interactive mode is provided. Search path parameters are passed on the
- command line, and may be embedded in a STARTUP alias, or SUBMIT file.
