Description of problem:
In the RedHat Documentation, Section 14, Editing Your Path, I believe there is a
typographical error.

After the line that says, "To the end of this statement, add ./ as shown
below:", in the gray box that demonstrates adding the ./, is written,
"PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:$HOME/seti:".  Shouldn't that be,
"PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:./"?

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2003-06-23 14:47:48 UTC 
Which specific manual is this in?
Comment 2 Tammy Fox 2003-06-23 15:25:13 UTC 
This is in the Getting Started Guide.
Comment 3 John Ha 2003-06-23 20:00:17 UTC 
Thank you for the report. These instructions have been changed since the 7.3
release. There were issues raised about the security of users setting ./ in
their path, so it was rewritten in favor of more explicit pathnames.

Thanks again for the report.
