Multiple paths are always separated with a ``:`` or ``,`` regardless of the platform.
User home directory and environment variables will be expanded.

Relative paths are treated relative to the working directory of the mypy command,
not the config file.
Use the ``MYPY_CONFIG_FILE_DIR`` environment variable to refer to paths relative to
the config file (e.g. ``mypy_path = $MYPY_CONFIG_FILE_DIR/src``).

This option may only be set in the global section (``[mypy]``).

**Note:** On Windows, use UNC paths to avoid using ``:`` (e.g. ``\\127.0.0.1\X$\MyDir`` where ``X`` is the drive letter).
