\subsection{Assigning the \texttt{TEXINPUTS} Variable}
You can simply install \PGFPlots\ anywhere on your disc, for example into
-\begin{lstlisting}
+\begin{verbatim}
/foo/bar/pgfplots.
-\end{lstlisting}
+\end{verbatim}
Then, you set the \texttt{TEXINPUTS} variable to
-\begin{lstlisting}
+\begin{verbatim}
TEXINPUTS=/foo/bar/pgfplots//:
-\end{lstlisting}
+\end{verbatim}
The trailing~`\texttt{:}' tells \TeX\ to check the default search paths after \lstinline!/foo/bar/pgfplots!. The double slash~`\texttt{//}' tells \TeX\ to search all subdirectories.
If the \texttt{TEXINPUTS} variable already contains something, you can append the line above to the existing \texttt{TEXINPUTS} content.
Furthermore, you should set |TEXDOCS| as well,
-\begin{lstlisting}
+\begin{verbatim}
TEXDOCS=/foo/bar/pgfplots//:
-\end{lstlisting}
+\end{verbatim}
so that the \TeX-documentation system finds the files |pgfplots.pdf| and |pgfplotstable.pdf| (on some systems, it is then enough to use |texdoc pgfplots|).
Please refer to your operating systems manual for how to set environment variables.
