how to remove path that used to be created.. help pls 1

[hendnov]

Hi guys,

Can you help me to remove the path that I used to create ?

I used to create path by using this command :
PATH=$PATH:/opt/java
export PATH

and now that directory has been deleted.
If I check echo $PATH, the path is still there.

Do you guys have any idea how to remove the one path?

Thx guys

It doesn't particularly matter, but just edit your path in .profile or /etc/profile (or elsewhere if not ksh) and login again to pick up the new $PATH.

Or if you need to do it on-the-fly for some reason:

[tt]PATH=`echo $PATH | sed 's#/opt/java##g;s#::#:#g'`[/tt]
