Can anyone give me an idea of a clean way to set environment variables in
programs launched from the workspace?. I'd like to do things like add
/usr/local/man to the MANPATH used by utilities->manual in Edit, and set
variables for use by Emacs.

I say "a clean way" because one of the local gurus has come up with this
neat, elegant, minimal, concise, ...... well, it is a solution I guess:

        i.      Create a file, say .workspacerc, that contains the
                following....

                #!/bin/sh
                var=value       export var
                ... (do other environment variables)
                exec /usr/lib/NextStep/Workspace.app/Workspace $@

        ii.     Make sure the above file is executable...

                chmod +x $HOME/.workspacerc

        iii.    Tell the Next login program what to run as Workspace...

                dwrite loginwindow Workspace $HOME/.workspacerc

Any clues?

thanks,
Graham.
