• directory d:\temp is already in PATH

usage

the usage states this

mypath.pl - Thomas Hofmann, Apr. 2010 - PATH Handling
Usage/Benutzung: [perl] mypath.pl [-q] {delete|unshift|push} (dir1) [{delete|unshift|push} (dir2) ..]
Usage2/Benutzung2: [perl] mypath.pl list [-all|(dir-fragment)]
-q   Quiet, some messages are suppressed,
     or set environment variable MYPATH_QUIET=[1|yes|true|on]

Set switch -q for "quiet" operation, some messages are suppressed. Instead of using switch -q you can set environment variable MYPATH_QUIET=[Ja|Yes|true|1|-q|On] On Usage2 switch -q has no effect.

Instead of using perl mypath.pl you can use the mypath.bat with same effect.

be aware

• After changing the PATH call batch mypathnew.bat (also resides in d:\temp ) to let the changes take effect.
• Be aware of directories with spaces, set them in double quotes (").
