Where is the PATH in redhat 7.3?

[Vadatajs]

I am trying to install that high performance liquid theme on redhat 7.3 and it tells me to add /usr/local/kde/bin to my path. I found instructions for mandrake, but I'm not sure if they would work for redhat. Here are the instructions I found. Are they correct? I'm sorry if this has been asked before, search terms used: liquid kde, redhat AND path; and kde3.

Thanks, I didn't realized I messed it up.

They might work, try them and find out. But basically your $PATH will be in ~/.bash_profile, or /etc/bash_profile (something like that).

To find out what your Path is do a echo $PATH. This will show you the order in which the shell searches for a command. The PATH statements are seperated by colons.
To add /usr/local/kde/bin to the Path do a export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/kde/bin

I don't have access to a RedHat box at the moment, but I believe you'll find the global PATH in /etc/profile if you're using sh/bash as your shell. If you're using csh, then look in /etc/csh.login.

You can always set your private PATH, of course. For bash, you can find this in ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc, and for csh you can find it in ~/.cshrc.
