We take great care of adding > this to 'use lib' in the reLyX wrapper. Isn't oerl supposed to look > there to find files?? Perl isn't the one using syntax.default. reLyX is using that. For a command like "use RelyxTable", Perl searches for the file RelyxTable.pm in the directories included in the array @INC. The 'use lib @array_of_dirs' adds the directories in @array_of_dirs to @INC. But syntax.default isn't being included with a "use syntax" command or some such. "use" is only for Perl modules, which syntax.default isn't. We *could* search in @INC for syntax.default, and it's somewhat doubtful that there would be a file called syntax.default in, say, /usr/lib/perl, but that doesn't really seem like the Right Way to handle this, IMO. Which is why we created $lyxdir in the first place. -Amir
