In order for that to be correct it needs to also have :/usr/local/bin inside of the quote marks. The /usr/local/bin directory on Linux systems like slackware and debian is where stuff gets put that anyone can execute that's on the system. I put a simple shell script I wrote there then tried to use it and it wouldn't work until I keyed in the /usr/local/bin/myd command. That small script makes the date and time more readable for me. Since that file was copied from suse, people in that other distribution probably also ought to be notified.
What is wrong with not including that? If the system administrator can install files to /usr/local/bin then I am sure that they are competent enough to add that to their path. Allan
