For example you can get the exact path list you got by typing the following into a terminal window: $ *getconf PATH* /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin $ The sysconf(3) system lets you access all kinds of nifty, useful, obscure, and never-to-be-used-by-a-reasonable-human snippets of information otherwise hidden inside the OS. --j --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BBEdit Talk" group.
