Hello, everyone.

I have a very strange problem that I cannot resolve and am hoping that someone here 
can help.

I've installed Fink on several machines in the past with no problems at all. However, 
when I tried to install it on my new G5 (MacOS 10.2.7), Terminal.app stopped working 
correctly.

The '/sw/bin/pathsetup.command; exit' script that is called at the end of the Fink 
binary install ran properly and set up my environment as expected. Unfortunately, now 
*every* time I run Terminal.app, this script is called and my Terminal exits 
immediately.

I have since removed Fink from this machine, but the script is still being called. Not 
surprisingly, this is what I see when I open Terminal:

Last login: Thu Oct  2 21:58:55 on ttyp2
/sw/bin/pathsetup.command; exit
Welcome to Darwin!
[Sonic:~] matt% /sw/bin/pathsetup.command; exit
/sw/bin/pathsetup.command: Command not found.
logout
[Process completed]



I can get into a shell by doing File -> New Command  when Terminal.app is in the 
foreground, then running /bin/tcsh and checking the box "Run command inside a shell" 
though this is a cumbersome workaround.

Can anyone tell me where exactly this script is being called from so I can get rid of 
it? It is not called when I log in to the machine as >console and there is nothing in 
any of my rc files. I assume Terminal is being passed an argument (maybe through an 
Applescript of some kind), but I have no idea how that works.

Thanks in advance. :)

        Matt
