Dear Norbert,
Thanks for your answer. However, it is not path I was asking after, but
install. But I think that is what you mean? Slightly curious why
auto-invoking path after install would not be advisable, but may I
suggest this is announced more explicitly in the docs? I found it very
confusing.
Cheers, H.
