Map command in windows

Post by shiznatix »

I really don't think that 'map' is the correct term but what I want to do is be able to use the java and javac commands from anywhere instead of having to be in the folder with those exe files and without doing like C:\java\jdk\bin\java every time I want to run the command when in a different folder. How do I do this?
