This _does_ help. It's mysterious enough that I tested it, and it seems to work except that it removes "." from any path. This is not quite what I want.
Glad it was almost a success ;) Interesting, thats not something I noticed before, I have never wished "." in my PATH, I should point out of course that "." in your PATH is a security risk waiting to happen ;) Nevertheless it should not be removing the entry unless its a dup. I have quickly confirmed the behaviour it is defn stripping all "." entries. *sigh* the script needs some work .. I'll play with it again tomorrow....
