Full Discussion: Creating a PATH variable
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Creating a PATH variable Post 303027887 by Circuits on Thursday 27th of December 2018 11:29:15 AM

Just want to make sure I understand completely. Specifying the PATH variable means that the program will automatically assume a path for functions like cp or what-have-you without actually referencing the variable: PATH? This would make sense because the deceleration of PATH is the only place in the script where it is being referenced by name. Then again, the only place data_dir is being referenced by name is in the instantiation as well. Is it possible that data_dir is acting in a similar way to PATH or is it more likely that data_dir was just never used after it was declared?
