Someone refresh my memory about search path set up. I remember in UNIX days we set a search path file. Now?

Trying to create a search path for textures etc.
 
2 ways:


1 - config.pro setting:
<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">


search_path c:\complete\path\to\folder</BLOCKQUOTE>
2 - search path file
<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">
config option:
search_path_file c:\complete\path\to\search.pro
search path file needs only to have the full path to the folders, each to a line.</BLOCKQUOTE>
In both cases, make sure you put quotes around your path if it has spaces.
Also - There is a texture directory config option:
<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">
pro_texture_library c:\complete\path\to\folder</BLOCKQUOTE>
