"universal" directory seach path, Miktex under texnic

Post by brans »

I am running this under MS XP. My input/include files reside in many directories, with
multi-branched subdirectories all included under (say) C:/x/. Thus, there is no simple
LINEAR path to all of them, except that they are at subdirectories at SOME level, not
known a priori, under C:/x/.

This can be accommodated easily in VTeX (also under MS XP) by choosing a single setting
option looking like C:/x// which does not need to be changed or renewed on each
run. Also, the same is true in Linux, by setting TEXINPUTS to :/x//

Is there any reasonable way to do this by means of ONE, FIXED setting like
the above within either Miktex itself, or Texnic???

Thanks.
Carl

You can use TEXINPUTS with MiKTeX in the same way.

Code: Select all

set TEXINPUTS=C:/x//;%TEXINPUTS%& latex file.tex
For setting up the environment permanently for your editor see this recent thread.

Cheers,
