Neil,
It may not be set up on your machine as it is not a standard part of QDOS.
However it should be easy enough to find it available for download. On my
system it is loaded via the BOOT file using a statement of the form
LRESPR win1_PTH_rext
And then directories added using statements like
PTH_ADD "win1_C68BIN_"
PTH_ADD "win1_QJUMP_"
PTH_ADD "win1_SYS_"
I then do a
PROG_USE "PTH1_"
to make that the search path for programs.
Dave

Yes, I can see how that would be very useful. I shall see how it is set
up on my machine
( via the boot program I suspect) and try to understand if it's being
utilised by anything.
Cheers

Dave,
Just reading the starting _doc file now and it is the sort of thing i
needed
to see first.... which leads me onto a something I've been meaning to
ask for
quite a while, if stightly off topic.
What does pth1_ symbolize? My guess is thats it's the root directory
on
my HD
but what is it's purpose?
I'm reading through everyones responses, they are very useful.
Cheers
Neil
