AFAIK - the way $PATH works (at least on OSX / Linux) is not the same as you get when you open your terminal... essentially because it is not using your .profile or equivalent settings when the shell is initiated. I am not sure where it gets it's initial setting?
What do people do to ensure command line tools are reachable... cross platform? I can think of a few strategies: 1. Use the full path when calling them and place them in any folder you want 2. Give a use the option to install it in one of the existing folders already on the PATH 3. Set the $PATH using shell commands - I'm not sure what effect if any setting it in the IDE / application has? Also for those of you on Windows - how does the shell work in terms of paths on Windows systems - has anyone any links I can read up on? _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
