How to run scripts without typing the full path?
I'd like to know if there is a way to run program/shell script without typing full path:
/opt/idea/bin/idea.sh
You can just create symlink. Create it in /usr/local/bin
. All you need is to run command:
sudo ln -s /full/path/to/your/file /usr/local/bin/name_of_new_command
After that you should make your file
executable:
chmod +x /full/path/to/your/file
Now you should be able to run name_of_new_command
at any time in your terminal.
