OK, my bad. One standard thing I do on my machines is add the following line near the top of /etc/profile: PATH=~/bin:$PATH
And that puts everything I want in my path. This may also be accomplished by putting this line in ~/.profile, depending on your shell. Setting this in .bashrc does not work because login shells don't read rc files, they read profile files. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_shell#Configuration_files_for_shells I suggest the user try setting PATH in a profile file instead of an rc file. -- xfrun4 ("Run application" dialog) does not use PATH to run application https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/306331 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Xubuntu Team, which is the registrant for xfce4-utils. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
