Hi Alan, got it!
The path is extended using the Windows convention, whereas it should be the MinGW/Linux-like convention. The result is: This is the current directory: /d/plplot-svn/plplot/comprehensive_test_disposeable/shared/build_tree/examples/tcl And this is the (first) part of the PATH variable: D:/plplot-svn/plplot/comprehensive_test_disposeable/shared/build_tree/examples/../utils:D:/plplot-svn/plplot/comprehensive_test_disposeable/shared/install_tree/bin:/d/cmake/bin:.:/usr/local/bin:/mingw/bin:/bin:/c/PROGRA~1/plusFORT:/c/Program Files/Intel/Compiler/11.1/065/lib/ia32:... Note the use of D:/ and /d/ to indicate the drive. I will make the necessary changes and try again. (Because the tests fail on pltcl.exe the differences are never reported!)
