Hallo,

I don't know if the maintainer of the minimals or Hans is the person 
I have to ask.

Is it possible to change the line

set PATH=%TEXMFOS%\bin;%PATH%

to

set PATH=%TEXMFLOCAL%\bin;%TEXMFOS%\bin;%PATH%

or

set PATH=%TEXMFPROJECT%\bin;%TEXMFOS%\bin;%PATH%

in 'setuptex.bat'?

Wolfgang

you can do that in your local copy but adapting in setuptex will for 
sure break a lot of things ... the paths we use in the minimals are 
unlikely to change

I do most of the changes in minimals.

On one hand it's true that one can modify the file easily and just
rename it, but it looks like a pretty harmless and sensible change to
me. I was already thinking about it in past, but never needed it so
far.

given the history of texmflocal and its changing use and order in 
things, it's about the worst one to mess around with

Hans,

What may go wrong with binary path? It's usually empty anyway (it has
never served any single purpose, I guess).

i dunno but it reminds me of the tetex path mess where one could end up 
with all permutations of paths which is quite painful to debug
