I thought these lines (35-39) in init.csh

if ( $?PATH ) then
     prepend_path PATH /sw/bin:/sw/sbin
else
     setenv PATH /sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
endif

or these (46-51) in init.sh

if [ -z "$PATH" ]; then
   PATH=/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
else
   prepend_path PATH /sw/bin:/sw/sbin
fi
export PATH

made fink path come first.


Best,

Axel
