Re: How do you modify PATH on Windows XEmacs 21.4.3

Most environment variables XEmacs uses are only read at startup, and their values end up in some other representations as values of Lisp variables. (The counterpart for PATH is `exec-path'.) Therefore it won't matter much to XEmacs if you change them. What exactly do you want to do? -- Cheers =8-} Mike Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla
