## 5.2 Command Qualifiers

`/BIBINPUTS /BIBINPUTS=(name,...)`

Specify directories containing input files, and the order in which they will be searched to locate each input file. A null value in the list indicates the current directory. The search procedure TeX uses to locate input files is to first search your default directory and then search each of the directories specified by the `/BIBINPUTS` option.

Default is `/BIBINPUTS=(TEX_BIB:)`; TeX looks in the directory associated with the logical name `TEX_BIB.`

`/STATS /STATS /NOSTATS [D]`

This qualifier is used while debugging `.BST` files to determine BIBTEX memory usage.

`/TEXINPUTS /TEXINPUTS=(name,...)`

Specify directories containing input files, and the order in which they will be searched to locate each input file. A null value in the list indicates the current directory. The search procedure TeX uses to locate input files is to first search your default directory and then search each of the directories specified by the `/TEXINPUTS` option.

Default is `/TEXINPUTS=(TEX_INPUTS)`; TeX looks in the directory associated with the logical name `TEX_INPUTS`.

`/TRACE /TRACE /NOTRACE [D]`
