Kpathsea

If you want to do any latex custom installation (say in your home directory), it is very important to understand how this works. Some things to note

setenv KPATHSEA_DEBUG 10 to understand what's going on.

In all file lookup environment variables,

    setenv TEXINPUTS /my/dir//:     # the double slash enables searchin in
                                    # sub directories as well
                                    #
                                    # the ending ':' augments the variable
                                    # with old path

Resume stuff

Postscript

Most people associate postscript with printing. It's actually a simple interpretive programming language with powerful graphic capabilities. You can do cool stuff like PS-HTTPD with it.
