The setting of the $TEXINPUTS variable and the g:Tex_TEXINPUTS variable is covered in :help custom-packages :help Tex_TEXINPUTS Something that doesn't seem to be covered very well by the LaTeX Suite documentation is where to set the g:Tex_TEXINPUTS variable. It is set by the package in the ftplugin/latex-suite/texrc file. The top of that file says: NOTE: Do NOT be edit this file directly: this file will be over-written each time you install a new copy of latex-suite. You can do one of the following: 1. Copy this file into $VIMFILES/ftplugin/tex/texrc and edit the values in that file. $VIMFILES is ~/.vim for UNIX systems and ~/vimfiles for WINDOWS systems. 2. Just set values of each setting individually in your $VIMFILES/ftplugin/tex.vim file. (See above for what $VIMFILES is). You will need to use :let instead of :TexLet in this case. So, the proper place to set g:Tex_TEXINPUTS is _not_ in your ~/.vimrc file but in either of the two files mentioned above. Regards, Gary -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
