Hi,
I am new to FreeBSD and currently I am working with FreeBSD3.2.
May I know where can I set the directory path so that I do not have
to go to the directory where the file resides in order to access it?
I have tried to set the PATH variable in the .profile file but this does
not seems to work.
Currently, when I want to run a executable program, eg. check, in the
directory that I am in,
I have to key in
./check
Can I solve the problem of keying ./ by setting the PATH=./ ?
How can check the path setting?
Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you in advance.
Regards
