I think it's one of those things that are considered to be known so widely that it's not mentioned anywhere at all... :-) It's the program that updates files in several directories with complete listing of all paths and files in them so any file is found very quickly and no program needs to do a long search through lots of directory trees. If a recently added file is not found than it's mostly because mktexlsr of the linux couterpart texhash hasn't been run. > Yeah; I just meant that the path thing sounded > unrelated to my pdfetex > problem (although it would fix the runperl problem). On my laptop the installation in c:\program files\... guaranteed that nothing worked and only after I reinstalled in c:\TeXLive was I saved from these path / not found errors.. good luck! Frans
