home.sessionSearchVariables

Extra directories to prepend to arbitrary PATH-like environment variables (e.g.: MANPATH). The values will be concatenated by :. These directories are added to the environment variable in a double-quoted context, so expressions like $HOME are expanded by the shell. However, since expressions like ~ or * are escaped, they will end up in the environment verbatim.
