Mosaic now searches my path for xv and ghostview, so if
/afs/athena.mit.edu/contrib/graphics/{$hosttype}bin
isn't in my path, I get the message:
bsh: xv: not found
and xv won't start. Similarly, if
/afs/athena.mit.edu/project/gnu/{$hosttype}bin
isn't in my path, I get the message:
bsh: ghostview: not found
and ghostview won't start.
Is this the desired behavior? I thought the reason Mosaic used explicit
pathnames to various programs was so users wouldn't have to have these
programs in their paths.
