IIRC, tcsh doesn't know about .profile. It uses .login instead. Also, the ~ (tilde for $HOME) does not expand within the quotes; you should replace it with $HOME. So, add setenv PATH "$HOME/bin:$PATH" to your $HOME/.login file and see what happens. You may check the effect with the command echo $PATH HTH _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
