Pokemonsay doesn't add to path even after logging out and in again #22

Hey, I was so thrilled have this project sent to me via slack from someone at work last year.

I absolutely love pokemon and pokemonsay brings me joy throughout my working day, so many thanks for developing it :).

so I recently got a new laptop for work and installed fortune, cowsay and pokemonsay it as per the instructions.

At the end of the script you're advised to logout and back in again so you can be sure it adds to your path.

I didn't have this issue on my previous laptop when I installed pokemonsay, but with my new laptop I found after logging back in, it seems like pokemonsay wasn't on my path when I echo $PATH .

There was however still ~/masquerainsley/bin which had both pokemonsay and pokemonthink there. So I ended up moving both of those into my path manually with sudo mv pokemonthink /usr/bin , restarted my shell and bam it worked in the end.

Posting this for any aspiring devs that love pokemon but aren't that familiar with Linux :).
