I never used BIBINPUTS but due to a question I now saw that it
doesn't work with quoted pathes (in miktex neither). That means that
this here works fine (on windows 10):
C:\Users\XXX\Documents\tests>set
BIBINPUTS=C:\Users\XXX\Documents\tests\tex
C:\Users\XXX\Documents\tests>bibtex test-utf8
This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2017/W32TeX)
The top-level auxiliary file: test-utf8.aux
The style file: plain.bst
Database file #1: testxxxxx.bib
while this here breaks:
C:\Users\XXX\Documents\tests>set
BIBINPUTS="C:\Users\XXX\Documents\tests\tex"
C:\Users\XXX\Documents\tests>bibtex test-utf8
This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2017/W32TeX)
The top-level auxiliary file: test-utf8.aux
The style file: plain.bst
I couldn't open database file testxxxxx.bib
Is this to be expected. And if yes how do one set it then for pathes
with spaces?
