Hi there,

the manual says that the env-var $TEXINPUTS overrides the built in var
$TEXINPUTS.

However,  

        echo $TEXINPUTS

gives

        :::~/.TeX:/usr/doc/.TeX:~/latex-styles//:./eps:./../eps:~/.TeX:/usr/doc/
        .TeX:~/latex-styles//:./eps:./../eps:~/.TeX:/usr/doc/.TeX:~/latex-styles
        //:./eps:./../eps 

nevertheless are file located in

        ~/latex-styles/www

not found. This leads me to the the conclusion that either $TEXINPUTS
is not acknowledged, or that the autamatic sub-directory expansion of
latex does not work in l2h.

        Thanks for your comments

                Uli
