The PATH environment variable is used by DOS "COMMAND.COM" or OS/2 "CMD.EXE"
to locate programs.


     PATH [d:][path];[d:][path]...

The PATH environment variable should include the disk and directory of the
Watcom C/C++ binary program files when using Watcom C/C++ and its related
tools.

If your host system is DOS:

The default installation directory for 16-bit Watcom C/C++ and 32-bit Watcom
C/C++ DOS binaries is called \WATCOM\BINW.

Example:

     C>path c:\watcom\binw;c:\dos;c:\windows

If your host system is OS/2:

The default installation directories for 16-bit Watcom C/C++ and 32-bit
Watcom C/C++ OS/2 binaries are called \WATCOM\BINP and \WATCOM\BINW.

Example:

     [C:\]path c:\watcom\binp;c:\watcom\binw

If your host system is Windows NT:

The default installation directories for 16-bit Watcom C/C++ and 32-bit
Watcom C/C++ Windows NT binaries are called \WATCOM\BINNT and \WATCOM\BINW.

Example:

     C>path c:\watcom\binnt;c:\watcom\binw

The PATH environment variable is also used by the following programs in the
described manner.

 1. Watcom Compile and Link to locate the 16-bit Watcom C/C++ and 32-bit
    Watcom C/C++ compilers and the Watcom Linker.

 2. "WD.EXE" to locate programs and debugger command files.
