APPEND enables programs to open data files in specified directories as if the files were in the current directory.
APPEND [[drive]path[;...]] [/X[:ON|:OFF]] [/PATH:ON|/PATH:OFF] [/E] APPEND ;
[drive:]path Drive and directory to append. /X[:ON] Extend APPEND to searches and command execution. /X:OFF Applies APPEND only to requests to open files. Defaults to /X:OFF /PATH:ON Searches appended directories for file requests that already include a path. This is the default setting. /PATH:OFF Switches off /PATH:ON. /E Stores the appended directory list in the environment. /E may be used only in the first invocation of APPEND. You can not include any paths on the same command line as /E. APPEND ; clears the list of appended directories. APPEND without parameters displays the list of appended directories.

Do not use APPEND with Windows or 32 bit extenders.
APPEND installs itself as an internal command after its first execution. Second and successive invocations MUST exclude file path and extension.
