Try in *scratch* buffer: (getenv "PATH")Ctrl-J!<br>
<br>
<br>
MacOS offers the directories /etc/paths.d and /etc/manpaths.d to create therein files à la '10-TeXLive' with a simple path name as contents. The path name should point either to the binaries or the directory containing the man? directories of this additional software component. After logout and a new login your environment should have learned the new paths. (I don't think that a restart is necessary.)<br>
