Include in path?

[mmiller9]

I recently installed something for kde and at the end of make install it gave a message to be sure and include something in the path. What the exact message was is unimportant at this time but for the sake of argument lets say it was /usr/local/share/kde this probably is nonexistant but for the sake of this question it will do now for the question. Where would you find the file to edit to include this in the path I am using rh7.3 and secondly how do you do this? Thanks

In your home directory edit the .bashrc file (there IS a dot in front of it, it's a hidden file) by adding this line:

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/share/kde

Log out then log back in.
