Note however that there is an exception to the rule:
If you want to change the PATH environment variable, then of
course you can't modify it that way, since this will alter the
Unix PATH environment setting. Instead, you should set the
WINEPATH environment variable. An alternative way to
indicate the content of the DOS PATH environment variable would
be to change the "path" setting in the wine config file's <link
