The easiest way to add a new path to $PATH (the environment variable) is with the export command. In this example we’ll add “~/opt/bin” to the user PATH with export:

export PATH=$PATH:~/opt/bin

You can run that directly from the command line, then check the $PATH with echo to show that it has been added like so:

echo $PATH

mac update path permanently

Comment

sudo vim /etc/paths
#add the path to this file and close (:wq in vim)

#note only add the path so often you may see:
export PATH=$PATH:/new/dir/location1.bin
#here you would just add /new/dir/location1.pin to /etc/paths
