How to I print the current path?

[J Luis]

I searched he docs (and Googled) but found no found no way to print the path. The obvious attempt failed

```
julia> path()
ERROR: path not defined
```

[Tobias Knopp]

pwd()

[J Luis]

No, that's the current working directory like in unix. What I want is the path as seen from julia (e.g the same as "path" on Windows or echo $PATH on unix). I am trying to see if the images package works and for that I have set the ImakeMagick path to the Windows path and have it inherit from julia.bat but still get an error saying

julia> using Images
WARNING: ImageMagick utilities not found. Install for more file format support.

On UNIX, you can do ENV["PATH”]

Not sure about Windows.

ENV["PATH"]

OK, thanks but it would be nice to have a path() function that do just that since I'm sure that will be the first attempt of every newcomer and very much on the spirit of, for instance, pwd()

Re Images: there is a build script which I haven't tested myself, but which in
theory should do everything for you. It was updated recently, because the
ImageMagick binary downloads changed (and they don't provide a "latest" link).
What if you check out Images master, update, and if necessary execute
Pkg.build("Images")?

I also added support for the MAGICK_HOME environment variable, and failing all
else you can do the Windows equivalent of Base.push!(Base.DL_LOAD_PATH,
"/opt/local/lib").

Hmm, this is getting a bit off topic. I'll reply on the issue Images #68 where this belongs
