_SysSearchPath()

This is a rexx function provided by PPWIZARD. This routine is named similar to an OS/2 specific call with a similar purpose, this PPWIZARD version works in all operating systems supported by PPWIZARD.

This function takes two parameters as follows:

  1. The name of an environment variable which contains a sequence of directories to be searched (such as "PATH").

    Unix unix directories should be separated by ':', for all other operating systems the ';' character should be used.

  2. The file to be searched for.

The return value is the full name of the file or '' if not found.
