Syntax:

APPEND [[drive:]path[;...]] [/X[:ON|:OFF]] [/PATH:ON|/PATH:OFF] [/E]

APPEND ;

• [drive:]path Drive and directory to append.
• /X[:ON] Extend APPEND to searches and command execution.
• /X:OFF Applies APPEND only to requests to open files. Defaults to /X:OFF
• /PATH:ON Searches appended directories for file requests that already include a path. This is the default setting.
• /PATH:OFF Switches off /PATH:ON.
• /E Stores the appended directory list in the environment. /E may be used only in the first invocation of APPEND. You can not include any paths on the same command line as /E.

• APPEND ; clears the list of appended directories.
• APPEND without parameters displays the list of appended directories.

Note:

APPEND installs itself as an internal command after its first execution. Second and successive invocations MUST exclude file path and extension.
