Where can I find a CMD.exe compatible command file utility
for doing simple persisting edits of the global %PATH% under XP?

4NT at JPSoft.com will do this.

Does it _have to be command line? You can do it for free with System
Properties (Windows + Break keys) -> Advanced tab -> Environment
Variable button.

I'm looking for an alternative to the Environment Variables form method.

Thanks for the hint about the keyboard shortcut to access the
System Properties form.

I've been aware of the 4NT products for a long time now, but never
wanted to get too dependant on restricted license utilities,
as I want solutions that I can access on many machines, even if I
just temporarily install them to do maintenance on an acquaintance's
workstation.
