If you set PATH in .profile then as soon as you login PATH (and any other env vars) will be available to you
export PATH=WhatEverTheNewPathIs:$PATH

a helpful tutorial is available here
http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/docs/faq/FAQ-java-linux-5.html

an example would be:
 <property environment="env"/>
 <echo message="PATH = ${env.PATH}"/>
 <property name="PATH" location="${env.PATH}"/>

hello,

Is it possible to set the path value permanently on linux (mac) ? l always have to set up the path value every time l open up a new command line terminal. I tried setting it up in the environment variables. it always returns back to the original configuration every time re start the computer. ant home and java home are all set up permanently it is only the path l don't know how to set up permanently.I am using a mac by the way.Does anyone have any suggestions?
