This software consists of Java executable .jar files; thus, it is not possible to add to the PATH environment variable.
From module load snpeff, new environment variables, SNPEFF and SNPSIFT, will be set. Thus, users can use the software by running the following command: java -jar $SNPEFF {other options}, or java -jar $SNPSIFT {other options}.
