uuxqt takes pains to restrict the PATH variable; unfortunately it never exports it! Just tack on "export PATH;" to the #define PATH near the beginning of uuxqt.c. (Actually it appears from the sh man entry that you could just replace the trailing ';' with a space, but I'm no sh expert.) This occurs in both vanilla v7 and 4.1bsd at least. Jay Lepreau
