what does "which dmd" give you?
Nothing...
And "type dmd | head -n 1"? If that gives you some kind of
path, what does then "file <path>" print?
I don't even have a tool called "type"? Should I install it
just for testing this?
He means type ie enter the following line in the console:
dmd | head -n 1
It gives me: -bash: dmd: command not found
Now, suddenly and mysteriously, if I type
dmd,
I get
-bash: dmd: command not found .
Really strange...
Quick point about paths and so on: if you don't understand what's
going on, or have just made a change and want to be sure whether
it worked, always open a new terminal session and try again.
There are caches that can need emptying, environment variables
that get inadvertently set etc.
I can't count the number of times I've been convinced somethings
completely broken only to start a new terminal and find it all
makes perfect sense again.
Totally simple, obvious advice, I know, but nonetheless always
worth repeating.
