Re: dot only gets found on os x, when explicitly specifying the path, although its already in env.PATH

Hi Dimitri.

That indeed has been the problem.

Looks like OS X factory settings only set the PATH to the default values
for the terminal, but don't define a PATH environment variable on top
level, so that it would also be existing for programs, that have been
started from for example the finder.
I have set my PATH in launchctl now and doxywizard now finds dot in the
default paths 

Thanks,
Stefan.

It will probably also work if you would start Doxywizard from the
commandline.
I think you probably set your PATH as part of the user shell (~/.bashrc or
~/.profile), right?
As a result this variable is not set when you do not launch the program
from the shell.

See http://stackoverflow.com/a/4567308/784672 for other options to
explore.

I of course can't install it to /usr/local/bin, so without getting default
paths to work I would have to clone and redundantly maintain the project
file, which I would really love to avoid.
