bluemoon said:somehow i feel as if i am threading into hell... well... i am at the next lower level of the pits now... ls: command not found...
i somehow think i am in serious trouble....
bluemoon said:i did the /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/open -a TextEdit /etc/profile
and got this for my path:"/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin"
so do i still edit till it becomes : /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin ?
tried the fast fix : set PATH = /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin but nothing happened... thanks for all the help... i am like a noob to all this programming thing... really appreciate all you ppl...
stcanard said:Hmm, sounds like you might have a personal file messing it up:
try
/usr/bin/open -a TextEdit ~/.profile
(notice the "." in front of the name there)
And see if there is a line in there that modifies the path. you need to do two things:
1) Change that comma into a colon ":"
2) Change the /urs at the end into a /usr

/usr/bin/open -a TextEdit ~/.cshrc
