When I say \input{filename}, it seems the pathname must either be a full
pathname or must be in the current directory. I want a search path, like the
Unix environment variable PATH. This will be a list of directories to be
searched in order to find the file I specify. I don't believe that such a thing
doesn't exist, because not having it is *extremely* inconvenient. Please tell my
I'm wrong - it does exist.
