Subject: ~ sometimes expanded in texmf.cnf, sometimes not
tex version 6.1, patched to work with kpathsea 2.3 (I think I made the trivial patch to 2.4). gcc 2.5.4, Nextstep 3.0.
lines in my texmf.cnf:
----------------------
latex2e_inputs = .:~/Library/tex//:$TEXMF/tex/latex2e//:$TEXMF/tex//
TEXINPUTS.latex = $latex2e_inputs
TEXCONFIG = .:~:$TEXMF/dvips
----------------------
from the output of "latex":
---------------------------
kdebug:Search path for .tex files (from texmf.cnf)
kdebug: = .:~/Library/tex//:/usr/local/lib/texmf/tex/latex2e//:/usr/local/lib/t
exmf/tex//
kdebug: before expansion = $latex2e_inputs
kdebug: font override var applies = 0
kdebug: application config file path = (none)
kdebug: texmf.cnf path = $latex2e_inputs
kdebug: compile-time path = .:/usr/local/lib/texmf/tex//
--------------------------
Notice the ~ is not expanded.
from the output of dvips:
-------------------------
kdebug:Search path for dvips config files (from texmf.cnf)
kdebug: = .:/swift:/usr/local/lib/texmf/dvips
kdebug: before expansion = .:~:$TEXMF/dvips
kdebug: font override var applies = 0
kdebug: application config file path = (none)
kdebug: texmf.cnf path = .:~:$TEXMF/dvips
kdebug: compile-time path = .:~:/usr/local/lib/texmf/dvips
----------------------
Notice that ~ got expanded.
