I think your inky command *does* work: absolute paths are not bad things. For example, if Apple begins supplying its own version, you could in general be at risk of an incompatibility. But if you're using Fink, I guess Fink's recommendations would be best. I guess you must already have follow these if you are using Fink within your login shells. For your root shell, you *could* simply modify $PATH, but that might not be adequate. Personally, I "do my own thing" and I modify /etc/bashrc and /etc/zshrc for local systems. E.g. if your inky shell is bash, you could append the following line to /etc/bashrc: source /sw/bin/init.sh (or whatever Fink's documentation recommends).
