set output:

PATH=c:\fdos\bin;a:\
COMSPEC=A:\COMMAND.COM
DJGPP=d:/djgpp/djgpp.env

Dump of environment block:

The sequence of truename calls for CWSDPMI.EXE:

A:\CWSDPMI.EXE
c:\fdos\bin\CWSDPMI.EXE
a:\CWSDPMI.EXE
COMSPEC=A:\COMMAND.COM\CWSDPMI.EXE
DJGPP=d:/djgpp/djgpp.env\CWSDPMI.EXE
CWSDPMI.EXE
CWSDPMI.EXE
CWSDPMI.EXE
