There should be something like: [ -d ~/bin ] && PATH=~/bin:$PATH Which means that the folder will be added to your PATH if it exists. I'm on Windows XP right now, so I can't verify it, but iirc there's something like that. ---------- Mathieu Bridon (bochecha) -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
