Hi,

Since we have a script path in tds now, the method for locating a script 
using kpse will change since scripts are no longer other text files; we 
need to keep in mind that such changes will break user scripts that use 
kpse to locate files. So, how about using 'other text files' as a fall back 
for scripts, i.e. when a script can not be found (using -format='script') 
kpsewhich should also try 'other text files' itself
