Hm. There is always the option to put the double slash into texmf.cnf or TEXINPUTS, like this: TEXMFHOME = $HOME//texmf Thus, even if HOME=/home/frank/ gets expanded to /home/frank, there is still a double slash. I would prefer that over a special variable. > It's OK. I think I can find the sources to this and start work on it. I > will let you know if I get stuck though. texlive-bin, texk/kpathsea.
