I'm not a developer, but I run some programs that require Mac's 
developer
software (X11, XCode), as well as Fink.  I'm jumping from a dying PPC with
Leopard to an Intell with Lion (10.7.3).  I've discovered now that the
path setup is not the same with the newer OS.  I installed Fink using all
the defaults, and my operating system installation is standard.
        I need to define a path in .profile (initially set up by Fink) to point
to a command line program called tab (it processes plain text to create
printed music) in /Applications/Tab4.3.  Once cd'ing to the location of a
subject file, I should be able to run tab in a terminal window (e.g.:  tab
MyLute.tab) on it.  The output in the home folder of MyLute will be
out.ps.  I've tried several variants of what I believe the path should be,
but nothing works.
        Any ideas?  Questions I'm not asking?  Info I'm neglecting to provide?  
I
don't actively use Fink or the developer packages for much except
compiling a program from source with a makefile;  the computer uses this
stuff more than I do, so I don't really know what paths are meaningful to
the programs involved.

Thanks for any help or insights you can offer!
