Searches a collection of paths for a particular file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```lua
|
||
|
|
p = os.pathsearch("fname", "path1", ...)
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Parameters ###
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`fname` is the name of the file being searched. This is followed by one or more path sets to be searched.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Path sets match the format of the PATH environment variable: a colon-delimited list of paths. On Windows, you may use a semicolon-delimited list if drive letters might be included.

The path to the directory which contains the file, if found. Otherwise, nil.
