It doesn't matter how I start xterm. These three ways give the same result: - start X11 from the Finder and then start a new xterm within X11 (from the X11 Application menu) or use the one that was started at the launch of X11 - start xterm by double-clicking it in the Finder. This starts a Terminal session and is therefore in fact the same as the third way (X11 was not running before doing this) - typing xterm& or xterm -ls & on the command line in a Terminal window (also here, X11 was not running before doing this) I always end up with the wrong path /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin:/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin Patrick ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list Fink-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
