Introduction

Care needs to be taken in understanding the wine variable PATH. L. Rayhen explained [Oct 07 wine user]: WINE [uses the] PATH variable in the registry. Of course [the linux shell ] environment variable is a different thing. In Windows you don't use Linux environment variables and Linux shell (this is obvious): you are using cmd instead. WINE is no different so to get access to WINE environment you need to run this:

wine cmd

And now type this:

PATH

You will see current PATH environment variable. [...] [the user had confused the Windows cmd environment with Linux shell environment so he gave an example to show the difference]. Here is an example:

echo $PATH

/usr/local/kde/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/b[...]

wine cmd

[produces:]

CMD Version 0.9.45
Z:\var\pkgs\nvidia>
PATH

[produces]

PATH=c:\windows\system32;c:\windows
