kpsetool - script to make teTeX-style kpsetool, kpsexpand, and kpsepath available

kpsetool [ OPTIONS... ] COMMAND

kpsexpand [ OPTIONS... ] STRING

kpsepath [ OPTIONS... ] PATHTYPE

kpsetool is a Bourne shell script that makes a teTeX-style kpsetool, kpsexpand, and kpsepath available. kpsetool uses web2c´s (new) kpsexpand binary, so the syntax for kpsexpand is incompatible with teTeX´s as of version 0.4.
