Re: [Texmacs-dev] Still problems with OSX compile

[Michael Lachmann]

I finally managed to get my compiled version to work by writing a
small shell script called gs
that unsets the environment variable DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH. Then gs didn't
try to use the
libraries in Contents/Resources/lib, and all was well.

Maybe TeXmacs should unset the variable before calling an external program?
