In the Subprocess Output window of i-Installer, you get after install
the BibTool i-Package:
### bibtool.prepare: Started...
### bibtool.prepare: Finished.
./bin/bibtool
./lib/BibTool/braces.rsc
./lib/BibTool/check_y.rsc
./lib/BibTool/default.rsc
./lib/BibTool/field.rsc
./lib/BibTool/improve.rsc
./lib/BibTool/iso2tex.rsc
./lib/BibTool/month.rsc
./lib/BibTool/opt.rsc
./lib/BibTool/sort_fld.rsc
./lib/BibTool/tex_def.rsc
./lib/libbib.a
./man/man1/bibtool.1
./include/bibtool/config.h
./include/bibtool/database.h
./include/bibtool/bibtool.h
./include/bibtool/entry.h
./include/bibtool/error.h
./include/bibtool/expand.h

./include/bibtool/macros.h

./include/bibtool/version.h
./include/bibtool/wordlist.h
This tells what was installed and where (replace . by /usr/local). If
you don't have these files, then something went wrong during the
install.
Regarding the message about tcsh not found, it seems you have tcsh set
as your shell. What does "echo $PATH" return? There should be
/usr/local/bin in the output. For example, I get:
legimc11:~ brunovoisin$ echo $PATH
/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/
powerpc-apple-darwin-current:/opt/local/bin
The first four bits /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin and /usr/sbin are (I think)
OS X default, the sixth bit
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current is added when
installing the TeX i-Package, the seventh bit /opt/local/bin is a
DarwinPorts thing specific to my setup. The fifth bit /usr/local/bin is
the one required for BibTool. It is added, in particular, when
selecting CLI activation in the TeX i-Package, and also by the
GhostScript i-Package (for which I don't remember whether or not it is
optional). It's easy to check: if things went right, you should have
inside /private/etc/csh.login lines like:
## setloginpath added /usr/local/bin start at Mon Dec 20 09:28:30 CET
2004
## Do not remove the previous line
if ("${uid}" != "0") then
set path = ( ${path} /usr/local/bin )
endif
## Do not remove the next line
## setloginpath added /usr/local/bin end at Mon Dec 20 09:28:30 CET 2004
and inside /private/etc/profile lines like:
## setloginpath added /usr/local/bin start at Mon Dec 20 09:28:30 CET
2004
## Do not remove the previous line
if [ `whoami` != "root" ]
then
PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/bin"
export PATH
fi
## Do not remove the next line
## setloginpath added /usr/local/bin end at Mon Dec 20 09:28:30 CET 2004
Finally, in the Finder search, you need to make sure that you have
selected, as one search criteria, "Visibility = Visible and invisible
elements" (the exact wording is probably different in English, I'm
translating approximately from the French).
Hope this helps,
Bruno Voisin
