title: Path recursively
body: <p>I tried searching this on Google and didn't really learn anything as the search results usually pertain to other recursive subjects. What I would like to know is if a folder is in Path is it defined recursively (on Windows)?</p>
  
  <p>I want to create a <code>C:\StandalonePrograms</code> and add that to path. It will contain a bunch of programming languages and other programs that usually come from zip files. I want to know that if by adding the program directory to it I can call all of the programs.</p>
  
  <p>For example if I have <code>C:\StandalonePrograms\SomeProgram</code> can I open up a command prompt type <code>someCommand</code> and expect it to run from the <code>C:\StandalonePrograms\SomeProgram\bin</code> folder?</p>
  
  <p>Or do I need to explicitly define <code>C:\StandalonePrograms\SomeProgram\bin</code> in my Path? </p>
  
  <p>If I can't are there any workarounds to achieve the situation I want?</p>
