| search path. If directories <var>pathdir</var> are supplied in addition to the |

| Multiple directories may be specified, separated by blanks. Specifying |
| multiple directories in a single command |
| results in the directories added to the beginning of the |

| If blanks are needed as |
| part of a directory name, double-quotes should be used around |
| the name. In the command output, the path will show up separated |
| by the system directory-separator character. The directory-separator |
| character must not be used |
| in any directory name. |
| If no directories are specified, the current search path is displayed. |
