Regarding my problem (extra entries being added to my path when I run a
program under X11) I've tracked the problem down a bit further and I've
realised that it isn't a problem with getenv(). In actual fact, the problem
seems to be caused by startxwin.bat and xterm, which both seem to be
contributing extra entries to my PATH..
If I edit startxwin.bat to remove the line that modifies PATH - and to
comment out the call to xterm, the problem goes away. However, if I launch
an xterm (which is desirable) it mysteriously seems to acquire some extra
PATH entries from somewhere.
Can anyone suggest where they might be coming from?
Thanks,
John
