I think I have pdflatex. At least there is a PATH to textbin
> Sys.getenv("PATH")
[1]
"/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/Library/TeX/texbin:/opt/X11/bin:/usr/local/git/bin"
Does this path indicate I have pdflatex?
I'm confused because asking about the pdflatex PATH returns a space:
Sys.which("pdflatex")
pdflatex
""
What is up with that?
