Hi Peter,

Oops!! ... when I said "printenv", in the Mx-compile, it shows a different
value for "PATH", from the one I see in the terminal.

I guess, you are right. Could you please tell me how to fix this?
Infact, when I said "printenv", I saw a big list, where in PATH_USER had the
correct value, where as the PATH variable was referring to an incorrect
value.
I also changed the path in Mx-compile, using "setenv PATH <value>", but it
gets reset to a different value!!

Thanks,
Nazir
