Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

Eric,
 I would say that is his PATH, if he is using FreeDOS.
FreeDOS has a fair bit of 'nix influence.

Hi Lester,
                  I learned that my path should always
include:
1. The root directory of my boot drive which is
always C: in all my computers.
2. The directory where all my DOS commands/utilities
are stored.
3. The Arachne main directory if I am running Arachne.

So that would be:   path= c:\;c:dos;d:\arachne  in my case.

I may also sometimes add other directories if they
contain programs/files that I want global access to.

I don't know your computer setup so I can't really
comment on your path.......except......... I am surprized
that I don't see the Arachne main directory included.
In fact, what you show below doesn't even look like
your path.  Your path is the line returned when you
type PATH at a DOS prompt and press ENTER.

Eric: If you put CDA.BAT in your PATH, then you can use it from the

command prompt when you're in DOS. There are many times that I want
to return to my Arachne main directory and do something before I
start up Arachne.

Might be a good idea, I put it there. Btw, my path is: d:\fdos\bin
