The shell path for a user in macOS or OSX is a set of locations in the filing system whereby the user has permissions to use certain applications, commands and programs without the need to specify the full path to that command or program in the Terminal. This will work in macOS Mojave, Sierra and all older OSX operating systems; El Capitan, Yosemite, Mavericks and Lion.

So instead of running something like this, with a path to the command:

Jun 21, 2017  Since Mac uses bash shell, so the environment variables can be added to the.bashprofile directory, for the current user. The path to this file can be found using the command The path to this. Oct 18, 2019  With macOS Catalina, Apple is now using Zsh as the default shell. We love Zsh, but the trusty old Bash shell is still included with macOS, and you can quickly switch back to Bash if you prefer. Zsh is only the default shell on newly created user accounts, so any existing accounts you have on an upgraded Mac will still use Bash by default unless you change it.

You can just type the command, regardless of where you are in the filing system:

Your shell path is a bunch of absolute paths of the filing system separated by colons :

You can find out whats in your path by launching Terminal in Applications/Utilities and entering:

And the result should be like this…

So this is stating that you can run Unix style applications or commands located in 5 default locations of a certain path in the filing system:

• /usr/bin
• /bin
• /usr/sbin
• /sbin
• /usr/local/bin

These directories are not visible by default in the filing system but you can make them visible.

Adding a Temporary Location

You can add extra locations to your path, in the mysql example above it’s location /usr/local/mysql/bin which is not in the default path, you can add it in Terminal like so:

Under MODES, choose from Light, Dark, or Use system setting, and a check mark will show next to your theme choice. Note: Choosing the Use system setting option will make Skype reflect the Dark or Light settings of your operating system. This is available for iOS 13 and above, Android 10 or above, MacOS, and Windows 10. Android 4.0.4 - 5.1. Apr 26, 2018  I am a developer and use Dark Theme. How do I make this change in Skype for Business? I see that it can be done in standard Skype but would like it in Business version. Thank you, Dan. Skype for business macos dark mode. May 28, 2020  Skype for Business on Mac is the all new client that provides great communication experiences for Apple users. Features like one-click join, edge-to-edge video, and full screen sharing give you a superior Skype Meetings experience.

So here I have copied my existing path and added the new location on the end. Test it by running echo $PATH again in the Terminal.

One of the disadvantages of this is that the new location will only be honored for that particular Terminal session, when a new Terminal window is launched it will have the original default path again.

Adding in a Permanent Location

To make the new pathstick permanently you need to create a .bash_profile file in your home directory and set the path there. This file control various Terminal environment preferences including the path.

Move into home directory

Create the .bash_profile file with a command line editor called nano

Add in the above line which declares the new location /usr/local/mysql/bin as well as the original path declared as $PATH.

Save the file in nano by clicking ‘control’ +’o’ and confirming the name of the file is .bash_profile by hitting return. And the ‘control’+’x’ to exit nano

So now when the Terminal is relaunched or a new window made and you check the the path by

You will get the new path at the front followed by the default path locations, all the time

Rearranging the default $PATH

If you needed to rearrange the paths in the default $PATH variable, you can just do that and leave off $PATH.

So lets say you want /use/local/bin at the beginning to take precedence you can add the default path like so inside .bash_profile

And then you can slot in other paths as required.

I am new to macOS or Apple OS X. How do I enable colorized output for my ls command on Apple Mac OS X just like the ones that shown on my Ubuntu Linux server? How do I configure Mac OS X Terminal app to have color ls output?
You can enable colorized output by passing the -G option to ls command on Apple Mac OS X or FreeBSD operating system. You don’t have to install anything special. Just pass the -G option to the ls command.

Sample outputs:

Configure ~/.bashrc to display colorful ls command

You need to add the following command in the ~/.bashrc file:

Append the following alias:

Save and close the file. Source the changes immediately:
$ source ~/.bashrc
Test it:
$ ls
$ ll

Converting button and DVD burning button are added to Video downloading module;9. Fixed synchronization problem while previewing converted HD videos;8. Fix registration bugs when upgrading from Free version to Ultimate version. Iskysoft upgrades for mac os catalina download.

How do I skip colorful ls command output temporarily?

Simply run the ls command as follows:
$ ls
$ ls -l

The -G option is equivalent to defining CLICOLOR in the environment. The ls command supports the following environment variables:

1. CLICOLOR – Use ANSI color sequences to distinguish file types.
2. LSCOLORS – The value of this variable describes what color to use for which attribute when colors are enabled with CLICOLOR

Just type the following command to enable colorized output for the ls command:

Understanding LSCOLORS values

You can define color for each attribute with the help of LSCOLORS, when colors are enabled with CLICOLOR. This string is a concatenation of pairs of the format fb, where f is the foreground color and b is the background color. The default value is:

Where,

ls Attribute	Foreground color	Background color
directory	e	x
symbolic	f	x
socket	c	x
pipe	d	x
executable	b	x
block	e	g
character	e	d
executable	a	b
executable	a	g
directory	a	c
directory	a	d

The color and their code values are as follows:

Code	Meaning (Color)
a	Black
b	Red
c	Green
d	Brown
e	Blue
f	Magenta
g	Cyan
h	Light grey
A	Bold black, usually shows up as dark grey
B	Bold red
C	Bold green
D	Bold brown, usually shows up as yellow
E	Bold blue
F	Bold magenta
G	Bold cyan
H	Bold light grey; looks like bright white
x	Default foreground or background

You can now customize it as per your need in ~/.bashrc:
