Hi everyone,
I am playing around with the runscript.tlu for WIndows TeX Live,
and realize that:
foo = os.getenv('PATH')
-- add some elements to the path
os.setenv('PATH', foo)
anotherfoo = os.getenv('PATH')
then in anotherfoo the path is *NOT* correctly set, but after
a spawn the path *is* correctly set.
Was that cryptic?
Once more: It seems that the os.setenv function does not have an
effect on the running process on Windows, only on child process?
