The source path can also be set as an environment > variable @var{FSDBPATH}, but the command line option will override the Environment variables should have the @env markup. @var is not for variables, but for things that stand for something else. E.g., @var{source-path} stand for the path that FSDB should search for source files. By contrast, FSDBPATH is a name of a variable that stands for itself. So @var is inappropriate for it. The same is true for `errno' (another ``popular'' mistake)--not that you used it in this case.
