</div>Ok I changed my .bashrc but I still do not see $HOME/bin show up in my<br>
$PATH. Here is what I have now:<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
# set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists<br>
</div>if [ -d ${HOME}/bin ] ; then<br>
PATH=${HOME}/bin:"${PATH}"<br>
fi<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
PATH=/usr/local/java2/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/contrib/bin:/afs/club.cc.cmu.edu/usr/chaos/bin:"${PATH}"<br>
<br>
</div>And here is the PATH:<br>
<br>
chaos@tellurium:~$ echo $PATH<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d">/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games<br>
<br>
</div>Seems like it is just using some system defaults and not even adding<br>
in anything from the PATH I have defined.<br>
<div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c"><br>
