I use pico as an example.
I want to launch another program (namely pdflatex), without interacting with it, but I need it to be launched as if it was launched from the terminal.

My problem is that I want to launch pdflatex with the -shell-escape option. This option allows pdflatex to launch itself other programs. But, when pdflatex, in this context (I mean, launched via NSTask), tries to launch gnu plot, it fails. Whereas the same commands, typed in a terminal, succeed.

My guess (and others’) is that it is a problem of environment variables.
