This is needed if new commands are added to directories in path while you are logged in. This should be necessary only if you add commands to one of your own directories, or if a systems programmer changes the contents of one of the system directories. Also flushes the cache of home directories built by tilde expansion. Take a few minutes to browse the manpage for tcsh - lots of interesting stuff. ----- Original Message ----- From: "jason dictos" Subject: Can't run a port right after an install > Hi All, > > I've been noticing that whenever I install a port, I can't ever run the > executable right off the bat, instead I have to close a consoel and re-open > one in order to get the program to be in my (I am guessing) search path. > > Why is that?
