[Gate-users] How can make "Gate" command available indifferentdirectories

[Arda Konik]

  Thanks Uwe and Simon for your helps and clarifications.
  I replaced " Linux-g++  "  in my $PATH environment with "Darwin-g+ 
+"   (in my .bash_profile) and now i can run Gate from any directory.
That is,
export PATH=/Applications/gate/gate_v4.0.0/bin/Darwin-g++
