I don't use MAMP Pro or Servbay, but I run many executables with BBEdit
worksheets, including my own scripts in Perl, shell, Python, and JS, plus
utilities I've installed. I usually put symbolic links to them in
/usr/local/bin with
`sudo ln -s path/to/myscript /usr/local/bin/myscript`
so I can call them by name without their whole paths.
So this experience - tangental to yours - leads me to ask:
1. What answer do you get on the CLI to `which js-beautify`?
2. How were the utilities you want to use installed? Perhaps re-installing with
Homebrew, independent of any dev environment, would do the trick (make sure
`which` gets the right one).
3. Different machine? If you changed Intel -> Apple Silicon/ARM, you probably
have a bunch of things to re-install.
