I'm mystified by some error (I guess) messages I get when I try to export paths to search for executables. My .bashrc looks like this: export PS1="\\[\\033[1;32m\\]\\w\\[\\033[0m\\]\\\$" export PATH= "/home/thatguy/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin" When I run bash I get this: declare -x (All environment variables)=whatever the default is And now the path isn't working at all. Am I an idiot? Should I put the export statement somewhere else? Thanks, Josh To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
