[NTG-context] problem in kpse.rb

17 Sep 2006

      Attempting to find out why this happened on linux

~$ texmfstart ctxtools --updatecontext
CtxTools | updating
CtxTools | unable to change to

I found that line 114 of kpse.rb can be changed from

path = run("--expand-path=\\\$#{varname}") rescue ''

to

path = run("--expand-path=\$#{varname}") rescue ''

which allows it to work, that is, the line should be the same under
windows and linux.

~$ ruby --version
ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i486-linux]
