To be able to run a command from the command line, the DOS box itself
first looks in the current subdirectory and then tests each of the
subdirectorys included in your "path" for the command you typed
in
turn.
The path can either be set explicitly using the command:
set path="c:\this\is\where\it\is"; "c:\another place"
or can be set GUI wise from the system control panel (system,
advanced tab, environment button under win2k)
To see what the path is currently set to, just type:
path
at the command prompt.
To extend the current path from command prompt:
set path=%path%;"My\new\path";
