How can I change $PATH ?

mts72

I would like to include the command "gnatmake" in my $PATH. It is located in /usr/local/gnat12/bin. I tried including it in the root directory files .profile and .cshrc with my editor "nano". It saved correctly, but still does not work even after a logout and reset. I tried a terminal command, but I might not be doing that correctly. I include the below information in case it is needed.

root@user-ghostbsd:/ # echo $PATH
/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/home/user/bin

root@user-ghostbsd:/ # echo $SHELL
/bin/sh

What would be the best way to change $PATH?

I used the editor "nano" to add the new path to /etc/login.conf under the first default heading near the top of the file.

default:\
:passwd_format=sha512:\
:copyright=/etc/COPYRIGHT:\
:welcome=/var/run/motd:\
:setenv=BLOCKSIZE=K:\
:mail=/var/mail/$:\
:path=/usr/local/gnat12/bin /sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/bin ~/bin:\
:nologin=/var/run/nologin:\
:cputime=unlimited:\
:datasize=unlimited:\
:stacksize=unlimited:\
:memorylocked=64K:\
:memoryuse=unlimited:\
:filesize=unlimited:\
:coredumpsize=unlimited:\
:openfiles=unlimited:\
:maxproc=unlimited:\
:sbsize=unlimited:\
:vmemoryuse=unlimited:\
:swapuse=unlimited:\
:pseudoterminals=unlimited:\
:kqueues=unlimited:\
:umtxp=unlimited:\
:pipebuf=unlimited:\
:priority=0:\
:ignoretime@:\
:umask=022:\
:charset=UTF-8:\
:lang=en_US.UTF-8:

I then rebuilt the file with "cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf" on the command line. I rebooted the system then tried the "gnatmake" command in my app folder and it all worked. This solved my problem.
