Summary:
A data file path can be specified in MS-DOS by using the APPEND
command. MS-DOS searches for a data file using the APPEND path. A file
included by a C program can be in a directory that is in the data file
path. The C compiler searches for the include file in the following
order:
#include<filename>
1. Directories specified by the INCLUDE environment variable
2. Directories specified by the APPEND command
#include"filename"
1. Current directory
2. Directories specified by the APPEND command
3. Directories specified by the INCLUDE environment variable
Please refer to your MS-DOS documentation for specific information
about using the APPEND command.
Note: The APPEND command can cause other problems during compilation,
linking, and execution. Microsoft recommends not using the APPEND
command when developing C programs.
