Howdy,

Why is there a . in front of the path? That would make the path  
relative to what directory you're starting in rather than the  
absolute path to the directory.

Are you trying to set the placement of included/input files? If  
that's true it might be easier to make symbolic links from the  
directory you use into the directory in the standard personal texmf  
branch, ~/Library/texmf/ (assuming you're using the gwTeX  
distribution), So you don't have to change anything at that low level.

Good Luck,

Herb Schulz
