Nota bene: even if /usr/bin is in your PATH (which is almost definite: life
in a macosx terminal window without /usr/bin in the PATH is pretty grim!)
you'll need to let the shell know that you've added in the new executable.
Either type "rehash" so that the shell scans through your directories in the
same way it does when you log in (caching the result), or (more easily)
close the terminal and open a new one.
Cheers,
Paul
