oh ok, that makes sense. So how do set path for each program?

I have done the following:

PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
export PATH

is that correct?

but do I have to do it for every program I install?

if I want one program to access the information in another program do I have to set the path for every program that it needs to access? and if so, how do I do that?

thank you very much for your help!!!!!!

This was a good question. I didn't even know nmap existed and found ipps to do the same thing.

Gonna remove that ipps application and use nmap. Much easier and faster.

Thanks.
