Sets PATH and MANPATH environment variables in xonsh shell config files (`~/.config/xonsh/rc.xsh` or `~/.xonshrc`) Due to xonsh peculiar syntax replaces a literal space separator between a command an a variable with a variable (set to space for all other shells)

I think it would make more sense to add the special handling for xonsh to the write_setting function and pass the shell's name as an additional parameter. This would avoid the duplication of this conditional block for each variable.

that would replace some of the duplication with a new variable condition in the write_setting function, and you'd have to call this function 3 times instead of 2, so will add more lines with comments to user configs, so it seems even worse
