title: DLL search on windows
body: <p>On linux, we have <code>LIBRARY_PATH</code> and <code>LD_LIBRARY_PATH</code> environment variables in order for programs to search for libraries. Do we have similar thing on windows? Particularly Windows 7? </p>
  
  <p>Also, I would like to know best practices for DLL use (where to put them, use envs or not, etc.), since I want to work on windows like everyone does, and not to sloth myself on workarounds :)</p>
