how to add to environment path in mac code example

Example 1: adding path in mac

The easiest way to add a new path to $PATH (the environment variable) is with the export command. In this example we’ll add “~/opt/bin” to the user PATH with export:

export PATH=$PATH:~/opt/bin

You can run that directly from the command line, then check the $PATH with echo to show that it has been added like so:

echo $PATH

Example 2: mac set environment variable
