  14. in texmf.cnf I defined this:
  15.  
  16. TEXINPUTS.tex = .:$TEXUINP//:$TEXLINP/plain//:$TEXLINP//:!!$TEXINP/plain//:$TEXINP//
  17. TEXINPUTS.etex = $TEXINPUTS.tex
  18.  
  19. then I preloaded eplain, installed in and invoked 'etex'.
  20.  
  21. And waited.  And waited.  Top(1) showed etex eating memory slowly.
  22. When I changed TEXINPUTS.etex to
  23.  
  24.   TEXINPUTS.etex = .:$TEXUINP//:$TEXLINP/plain//:$TEXLINP//:!!$TEXINP/plain//:$TEXINP//
  25.  
  26. 'etex' worked again.
