Need Help Setting Path and Environment Varibles
Hello all, I have a Mac OS X (10.7), and I need to set environment variables and paths for some programs I will be running. I have followed instructions and searched the Web for where to do this, but I can't seem to find an answer. I have tried using the VIM editor to write them into my .login, .bashrc, and profile files, but it doesn't seem to be having any effect. Does anyone know which file needs to be edited, or any other tips about this process?
Blessings,
Tyler

NAME
mac_is_present -- report whether the running system has MAC support
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/mac.h>
int
mac_is_present(const char *policyname);
DESCRIPTION
The mac_is_present() function determines whether the currently-running kernel supports MAC for a given policy or not. If policyname is
non-NULL, the presence of the named policy (e.g. ``biba'', ``mls'', ``te'') is checked, otherwise the presence of any MAC policies at all is
checked.
RETURN VALUES
If the system supports the given MAC policy, the value 1 is returned. If the specified MAC policy is not supported, the value 0 is returned.
If an error occurs, the value -1 is returned.
ERRORS
[EINVAL] The value of policyname is not valid.
[ENOMEM] Insufficient memory was available to allocate internal storage.
