  35     <para><command>systemd-path</command> may be used to query system
  36     and user paths. The tool makes many of the paths described in
  37     <citerefentry><refentrytitle>file-hierarchy</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
  38     available for querying.</para>
  39
  40     <para>When invoked without arguments, a list of known paths and
  41     their current values is shown. When at least one argument is
  42     passed, the path with this name is queried and its value shown.
  43     The variables whose name begins with <literal>search-</literal>
  44     do not refer to individual paths, but instead to a list of
  45     colon-separated search paths, in their order of precedence.</para>
  46
  47     <para>Note that paths which depend on environment variables are
  48     computed with <command>systemd-path</command>'s invoked
  49     environment, and not the system or user manager's environment. As
  50     such, the output of <command>systemd-path</command> may not
  51     reflect the behavior of manager processes.</para>
