It should be possible to set and restore FPATH locally around where the compiler is using it; so long as you aren't using shell functions the shell shouldn't be worried. It would be nice for someone to try this so we can illustrate the solution. Other shells will have the same problem; the difference may be they don't tend to supply as many functions that are supposed to work out of the box, though there are enough functions around that doesn't seem like much of a difference. pws Member of the CSR plc group of companies.
