Hello

I am trying to add permanent path in bash shell "/etc/profile" in
order to run "mged" just by typing "mged" on the terminal. I searched
in Install/Manual file and even on internet and I found this link
http://brlcad.org/xref/source/INSTALL. In both files it is written
that add " export PATH=/usr/brlcad/dev-X.Y.Z/bin:$PATH " but when I
added this path in "/etc/profile" an error pops-up with the message :
No command 'mged' found.
I searched and found that it should be like this

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/brlcad/dev-X.Y.Z/bin

When I add this path in "/etc/profile" it runs smoothly every-time
when I write 'mged' on terminal. My question to community is that the
path mentioned in Install/Manual file and this link
http://brlcad.org/xref/source/INSTALL is for permanent or temporary
path? If temporary, should we add " export
PATH=$PATH:/usr/brlcad/dev-X.Y.Z/bin " path to Install/Manual file so
that one can set his/her permanent path instead of temporary.

Please correct me if i'm wrong.

Thank you.
