indeed, TEXROOT is an internal setuptex variable; actually, the only thing that setuptex sets up is TEXMF, TEXMFCNF, TEXFORMATS and TEXMFCACHE; the rest is nilling interfering variables and a few intermedia ones that save typing (TEXOS, TEXROOT) in the path bases variant, you cannot use TEXOS and TEXROOT since they don't exist; you can try TEXMFCACHE=/tmp ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl ----------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ dev-context mailing list dev-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/dev-context
