Hello to all,

Do I unset PATH delete all content?
That would not be a good idea.
Although this seems to be more of a bash question than a python
question, I'll take a crack at it.
The first question is: do you want to eliminate that directory from your
$PATH forever and ever, or do you just want to eliminate it in some
shell instances?
If the first is true, find out where it's being added to your $PATH,
such as ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc and comment out that line.
If the second is true, you could clear it out in real time, with a
little something like:
. export PATH=`echo $PATH | sed 's,:/path/to/my/program,,'`
This has not been tested, but is reasonably close to what's needed. Note
that you need the period "." at the beginning to make sure that this
happens in the current shell.
I downloaded pycharm and wanted to make it executable from the command
line without accessing the bin folder and launch the bash script:
But, here's the big question. How does having "/path/to/my/program" in
your $PATH variable prevent you from doing that? The simple answer is
that it doesn't.
You might want to ADD something to your $PATH, such as
"~/Scaricati/pycharm-2017.1.4/bin", but taking something out will not
do what you want.
Another approach would be to ADD something to your .bash_aliases file,
such as:
pych()
{
~/Scaricati/pycharm-2017.1.4/bin/pycharm.sh $*
}
Then, you can type "pych" at the command line, and bash will interpret
it as the above command, including arguments.
Two words of caution here:
1. I haven't tested this code, either.
3. If pycharm does not know its location (which is not necessarily
the current directory), it might not be able to find the many
accessory files that are there.
