Hi! every time Terminal boot I have this error:
-bash: $: command not found
This error occured after Emacs installation so I think I made some mess editing bash profile..
this is my .bash_profile:
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/smlnj/bin"
$ alias emacs="/usr/local/Cellar/emacs/24.x/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw"
what's wrong with it?
thanks
MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
echo $PATH
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
export PATH="/usr/whatever/bin":$PATH
echo $PATH
/usr/whatever/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/u sr/sbin:/sbin
Change your
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/smlnj/bin"
to
export PATH="/usr/local/smlnj/bin":$PATH
Yes you're right. Removing the '$' in front of the line the error disappeared but I could not boot emacs from terminal.
I solved deleting the whole line ($ alias emacs="/usr/local/Cellar/emacs/24.x/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw"). Maybe it was useless...
thanks all for your kindness
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/smlnj/bin"
$ alias emacs="/usr/local/Cellar/emacs/24.x/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw"
The $ should NOT be in front of the 'alias' command
-bash: $: command not found
-bash $: command not found when Terminal starts
