PATH variable

jk21 · 09-28-2004, 02:37 PM

Hopefully, this will just be a quick question. In order to use a java compiler fromt he command line, I'm having to append the directory to the PATH environment variable every time I start a new command prompt by typing

export PATH=$PATH:/opt/SUNWappserver/jdk/bin

Is there a way to add that text to my PATH variable permanently so I don't have to type it every time I want to use the java compiler?
