I'm finding that $PATH is different in Vim than in the parent shell.
In a shell I see that $PATH reflects what's in my ~/.zshrc :
% echo $SHELL
/bin/zsh
% echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:\
/home/john/bin:/home/john/git/scripts:/home/john/.cabal/bin:\
/home/john/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin
But within a Vim session launched in that same terminal:
:!echo $SHELL
/bin/zsh
:!echo $PATH
/home/john/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:\
/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/NX/bin
... $PATH is different. So when using a shell script located in
/home/john/git/scripts in a mapping in my vimrc, it's necessary to
write out the full path to the executable. Seems this should be
easy to figure out, but searching around I can't come up with an
explanation as to why $PATH is different in Vim.
Thanks for any help,
John
