- mapgrep 11y agoNot clear on your meaning. The fact that the two directories have completely different ports inside of them is the reason you want to add both to the PATH. The line I pasted, from my own .bash_profile, is identical to the recommended approach: https://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.shell.html https://guide.macports.org/chunked/installing.shell.html
