# Sometimes, you may wish to install programs into other locations on your computer, but be able to execute them easily without 
# specifying their exact location. You can do this easily by adding a directory to your $PATH. To see what's in your $PATH right 
# now, type in:

# PATH=`$PATH`

# You'll probably see the directories mentioned above, as well as perhaps some others, and they are all separated by colons. Now 
# let's add another directory to the list.

# Let's say you wrote a little shell script called hello.sh and have it located in a directory called /place/with/the/file. This 
# script provides some useful function to all of the files in your current directory, that you'd like to be able to execute no matter 
# what directory you're in.

# Simply add /place/with/the/file to the $PATH variable with the following command:

# export PATH=$PATH:/place/with/the/file

# You should now be able to execute the script anywhere on your system by just typing in its name, without having to include the full 
# path as you type it.
