Just downloaded patheditor 1.0.2

You were right, I did not have a c:swig directory, so that path was
correctly removed?

Is there any for you to modify patheditor can use both the system and
user paths.
echo %path% concatenates both paths.

Possibly use a parameter which specify the path type.

path_editor --system | -s
path_editor --user   | -u
if no path type specified default to system.

Some applications will by default add a path to the user's and not to
the system's path?

In meantime, I decided to move the one of the path from user to
system.

It worked as far as I can tell .. obviously it is in the user path ...
I intend to remove it

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner>path_editor
Current path entries:
        C:\Tcl\bin
        C:\Program Files\graphicsmagick-1.1.7-q16
        C:\Program Files\imagemagick-6.2.8-q16
        C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX 9.0 SDK (October
2005)\Utilities\Bin\x86
        C:\WINDOWS\system32
        C:\WINDOWS
        C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem
        C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel
        C:\p2x
        C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\Bin
        C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE
        C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Bin\win64
        C:\Program Files\IDM Computer Solutions\UltraEdit-32
        C:\Program Files\IDM Computer Solutions\UltraCompare
        C:\Perl\bin
        C:\ruby\bin

For test purposes, I attempted to remove the ruby path from the
system.

As you can see, it failed.

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner>path_editor --remove "C:\ruby\bin"
