Installing Scripts

For easy access to the scripts, you can place them in ~/.local/bin. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Create the ~/.local/bin directory if it doesn’t already exist:

   mkdir -p ~/.local/bin

2. Move the scripts to ~/.local/bin:

   mv <name_of_script> ~/.local/bin/

Updating PATH

To ensure that the scripts can be executed from anywhere on your system, you need to add ~/.local/bin to your PATH environment variable. If it’s not already included, you can add it by following these steps:

1. Open your shell configuration file in a text editor. For example, if you use bash, you might edit ~/.bashrc (for zsh users you need to edit .zshrc instead):

   vim ~/.bashrc

2. Add the following line to the end of the file:

   export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"

3. Save the file and exit the text editor.

4. Apply the changes to your current session:

   source ~/.bashrc
