The PATH is showing...
[Macintosh-2:~] howarth% printenv PATH
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:.:/usr/local/NMRPipe/nmrbin.mac:/usr/local/NMRPipe/com:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/bin
It seems obvious that it had to be set otherwise opening a
new Terminal window wouldn't solve the issue. I'll
try bash to verify that problem disappears under that
shell. It is a really odd glitch as I've never seen
tcsh not 'find' new files after a rehash but require
a new Terminal window. FYI, this is under Snow Leopard.
