Hello,

thanks for the heads-up and the suggestions.   I have one nitpick/question:

Why making it writeable by everyone?  644 is a better choice.  Actually,

	sudo cp TeX /etc/paths.d/

is even better, since installs it with permissions equal to 644 and the
right ownership (root:wheel) regardless.

Best,
Ettore
