I noticed that the user is hardwired in epix; if root installs epix,
then epix has
EPIX_CONFIG_FILE="/root/.epixrc"
Perhaps the installation process replaces $HOME with the actual value
at the time of installation.
(I also noticed that epix has
INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local
and
HDR_PATH=$INSTALL_DIR/include
no matter where epix is installed. It doesn't seem to matter, though,
it still works even though I've installed it in /usr. Perhaps
/usr/include and /usr/lib are default paths for g++?)
By the way, in case I haven't mentioned it yet, every one of my
comments has an implicit
"This whole thing is cool, thanks!"
attached to it.
