To add a directory to your PATH environment variable on most Linux systems:
1. Open your .bashrc file in a text editor. This file is typically located in your home directory.
2. Add the chosen directory to the PATH variable. This should be done in the following format:
export PATH=”$PATH:<chosen-directory>”
3. Save and close the file.
4. Execute the file by running the command: source ~/.bashrc
This will add the chosen directory to your PATH variable so it can be accessed from any directory.
To add a directory to your path in Linux, you can use the following command:
export PATH=”$PATH:/path/to/desired/directory”
To make the change permanent, you can add the command to your ~/.bashrc file.
