does anyway know how I can make a script which resides in dir:
/mypath/a/b/c/d
available to other users without them having to set their environment to
PATH=/mypath/a/b/c/d=$PATH
export PATH
in their profiles. This is done so they can simply type myscript on the command line.
i.e. I don't want every user having to update their profiles or even using them. Is there an easier way to have control of users settings? by the way I am just another user so I haven't got access to /local/bin etc so this would be my own directory.
If you are not 'root' in order to update /etc/profile or in order to create a symbolic link to /usr/local/bin or something, I believe you are forced to tell users to type full script path or update their PATH variable
