Re: Leopard Migration Hammered Mutt



Thanks,

Your suggestion below pointed out that  .bash_profile is the initialization 
file.  But  .bash_profile has no references to Path in it.  I can add  
PATH=$PATH:/sw/bin  as you suggested, but will adding this override my original 
Path variable, or simply add it to the existing path?

If it is possible I would rather add  /sw/bin  to the resource file where the 
rest of my Path is stored.  How would I go about doing this?
