Set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
if [ -d ~/bin ] ; then
PATH="~/bin:${PATH}"
fi
Hmm, i'm not 100% percent sure, but is this supposed to work in general? I don't think that all programs that use the PATH varible are supposed to interpret ~ correctly.
Instead, the shell usually substitutes ~ or ~user.
Look at this the output of these commands:
echo ~
echo "~"I would suggest to use PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" or even PATH="$(echo -n ~)/bin:$PATH" instead of your line.
