      Thank you for the reply, micmast.

      I tried your suggestion but only got a "Command not found" message.

      On a hunch, I tried just "pico" but that didn't prove fruitful either.

      Oh well, it will come, I suppose, one of these days.

      Again, thanks for answering.

        Trying to add locations to the PATH

        Greetings,

        When I open a terminal and enter :"echo $PATH", I receive this printout:


        I successfully add :


        But when I close the terminal, and later reopen and check the path, the addition has disappeared. The path is back to the original path, sans the "/home/james".

        What way exists to save the change permanently?...

          Ah yes ... that is good. Problem solved. Sometimes I can be very very dense.

          Many thanks for the replies. It's really appreciated.

          And now, onward and upward!

            Thank you for the reply, Lahari -
            I do make the first line #! /usr/bin/python.
            And I do make the scripts executable.
            You last answer,went over my head.
            With the script residing in /usr/bin, I can open a terminal and type the just the script name, and it will execute.
            My problem is getting the scripts into place without so much effort.
            I know I am missing something here, but I just don't know what it is....

              Too long of a process to save .py scripts

              Greetings,
              Using Ubuntu 7.10 and Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Mar 7 2008, 04:10:12)
              [GCC 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)] on linux2

              I am presently going through the "A Byte Of Python" tutorial.

              When I copy the little .py scripts and save them, I find they must be in the /usr/bin directory.

              But I cannot directly save them to that location. I have to save them...
