I'm sure we could avoid the wrapper by patching the source, but why would that be better? The wrapper is a simple and robust solution, and in this case I can't see any drawbacks to using it. For context, Asunder assumes that various tools will be made available via the PATH environment variable. It refuses to function in certain cases when a tool that it needs can't be found in the PATH. I'm sure we could patch this mechanism, but it seems simpler to just create a wrapper that puts the directories containing the tools onto the PATH. -- Chris
