From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
path n. 1. A {bang path} or explicitly routed {{Internet address}}; a node-by-node specification of a link between two machines. Though these are now obsolete as a form of addressing, they still show up in diagnostics and trace headers ocvcasionally (e.g. in NNTP headers). 2. [Unix] A filename, fully specified relative to the root directory (as opposed to relative to the current directory; the latter is sometimes called a `relative path'). This is also called a `pathname'. 3. [Unix and MS-DOS] The `search path', an environment variable specifying the directories in which the {shell} (COMMAND.COM, under MS-DOS) should look for commands. Other, similar constructs abound under Unix (for example, the C preprocessor has a `search path' it uses in looking for `#include' files).

The list of directories the kernel (under {Unix}) or the command interpreter (under {MS-DOS}) searches for {executables}. It is stored as part of the {environment} in both operating systems. Other, similar constructs abound under Unix; the {C} {preprocessor}, for example, uses such a search path to locate "#include" files. [{Jargon File}] (1996-11-21)
