Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Add directory to path permanently Post 303024779 by cmccabe on Tuesday 16th of October 2018 03:04:03 PM

I just ran the below on the command line. Is there a better more optimal way? Thank you Smilie.

Code:
export PATH="$PATH":/usr/bin/gatk-4.0.10.1

I am using bash although that is a bash command to add to path I think. Thank you very much for the clarification and helpSmilie.
