Subject: Why does exec-path seem to be modified?
Date: Sat, 14 Feb 2015 22:42:50 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87lhk0w4o5.fsf@wmi.amu.edu.pl> (raw)
Hello all,
C-h v exec-path RET
shows roughly this in my Emacs:
exec-path is a variable defined in `C source code'.
Its value is
("/home/marcin/texlive/2014/bin/i386-linux" "/home/marcin/bin" "/usr/local/sbin" "/usr/local/bin" "/usr/sbin" "/usr/bin" "/sbin" "/bin" "/usr/games" "/usr/local/games" "/usr/local/libexec/emacs/25.0.50/i686-pc-linux-gnu")
Original value was
("/home/marcin/texlive/2014/bin/i386-linux" "/home/marcin/bin" "/usr/local/sbin" "/usr/local/bin" "/usr/sbin" "/usr/bin" "/sbin" "/bin" "/usr/games" "/usr/local/games" "/home/marcin/other-files/emacs/emacs/lib-src" "/usr/local/libexec/emacs/25.0.50/i686-pc-linux-gnu")
The /home/marcin/other-files/emacs/emacs is where the source code of my
Emacs lives.
Why is there a difference between its "value" and "original value"?
Needless to say, I do not mess with it in my init.el.
TIA,
--
