My strong guess that the PATH is set by the shell. But by the wrong shell...

Default shell is stored in /etc/passwd in in Linux and BSD.
If you look at the content of this file in MacOS you won't even find your account there.
Basically, all shell-related stuff is ignored by MacOS, IMHO.
It looks like PATH for GUI apps (launched by launchd) is set by launchd.

BTW, path to libs is set by LD_LIBRARY_PATH in Linux and BSD. Smile

PATH is used to locate executables.

I know how to trace loader in Linux but have no idea how to do that with GUI apps in MacOS launched with launchd. :-/
