There is a small bug in dvips5.02 which bit someone here last night. The environment variable TEXINPUTS is looked at for (inter alia) a path to locate included PostScript figures. As a result, the variable `figpath' is changed. Unfortunately, in output.c, figpath is never actually looked at, only the symbols FIGPATH which is set with -D in the Makefile.... easy to fix for a future release. I haven't checked the other environment variables. Sebastian Rahtz
