I found that I can use $env:Path within PowerShell to see my current system path. However, everything runs together on one line. Is there a way to pipe the output of $env:Path to another command that will print each path value separately (i.e. printing on a new line for everything that is delimited by a semi-colon)?

Currently it prints something like this:

C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It;C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It;C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It;C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It;C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It;

I’d rather have something like this:

C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It
C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It
C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It
C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It
C:\Some Test Directory\With\Some\Files\In\It

    $env:Path.split(";")

PS C:\Users\user> $env:Path.split(";")
C:\Program Files (x86)\Haskell\bin
C:\Program Files (x86)\Haskell Platform\2011.2.0.1\lib\extralibs\bin
C:\Program Files (x86)\Haskell Platform\2011.2.0.1\bin
C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common
C:\Windows\system32
...

    Works for me.
