Is it a bug ? echo %path% can not evaluate the variable.

I set the system variable PATH that call the user variable but not evaluate correctly.

Input :    echo %ERLANG_HOME%\bin

Return : C:\Program Files\erl-24.1\bin

Input :    echo %path%

Return : ... ;%ERLANG_HOME%\bin; ...

I'm not sure what you mean, if you echo something in a command-prompt containing a variable and you suffix that with something else.. It will just print that output?
