i got the following in my /etc/environment:

r/bin/X11:/usr/games"

come to think of it though, the odd part is,
$HOME should be replaced with something at the time of assigning the
value to PATH.

so the problem is elsewhere, and no, bash does not handle this either.

it seems to ignore it sort of, because i do find the commands in tab
expansion, but then i try to run them they are not found. odd, but
anyways, scrap this one.

they don't, something else on my system is wrong.
