dear members;
I am trying to placea directory to keep minor records in particular directories.. rather than just rely on hard links.. I would like to set the $PATH variable so that I can access the directory itself from anywhere; ex./ /tmp or /bin /var...
I know how to export enviromental variables.(i think!)... but this does not seem to do the job ver well ..ex,.
path=`~/dir1/dira1/filesys:~/dir2/dira2/../dirb2/filesys/:etc' EXPORT $PATH...
so far this has not worked.. and i can't seem to imagine how placing the dirctory in ex,. /sbin and creating hard links would work in place of a direct pth export... .
thanx for your ideas moxx68
