A PATH command added to S:StartUp-Sequence or S:User-Startup (in 2.0)
has global effect.

Also (look up the PATH command in the manual, since my memory is 
usually faulty) you can do "path c: x:y/z add" to make commands in
x:y/z as visible as those in sys:c. I don't remember whether to order
of added paths is important (moot, unless you have commands of the
same name; e.g. arp replacement, etc.)
