Setting zsh path array no longer works #37

Closed belak closed 10 months ago

belak commented 8 years ago

This snippet of code worked before (in my zshrc), but now it doesn't appear to grab the path updates correctly now that it's in zshenv. Note that if I echo $PATH right after setting path in my zshenv, it shows the correct value: /home/belak/bin:/home/belak/go/bin:/home/belak/.rbenv/shims:/home/belak/.rbenv/bin:/home/belak/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin

# Automatically remove duplicates from these arrays
typeset -U path cdpath fpath manpath

# Golang stuff
export GOPATH=$HOME/go

# Add our custom stuff
fpath=("$HOME/.belak/zsh" $fpath)
path=("$HOME/bin" "$GOPATH/bin" "$HOME/.rbenv/shims" "$HOME/.rbenv/bin" "$HOME/.local/bin" $path)

path is not the same as $PATH, I think.

This is really old, but I'm pretty sure path and PATH are the same - when you change one, the other changes to match it. One is just an array version of the other. I'm not entirely sure how it works beyond that.

It uses the same mechanism as typeset -T. Cf http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/Shell-Builtin-Commands.html

Closing because this is a shell configuration issue, not an exec-path-from-shell issue specifically.
