Hi
I am having a problem persuading Bash to accept a script to add some
additional environment variable to a Konsole environment.
The script I am using simply adds some stuff to the PATH statement as
well as some extra environment variables typically the file contains
statements as follows.
PATH=$VARKON_ROOT/bin:$PATH
export PATH
In previous versions of UNIX I have used making the script file
executable and running it resulted in the PATH (in this case) having the
additional directory appended to it, this also worked for new
environment variables. When I do the same thing in Linux in a Konsole
terminal under KDE the environment does not change. As far as I can
glean from reading the man page for Bash this should work. If I run the
commands from the prompt everything works fine but of course this is
tedious and should not be necessary.
Can anyone guide me as what I am doing wrong?
