When installing via pip
, if you see following message:
WARNING: The script diary is installed in '/some/path/examples/bin' which is not on PATH
Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this warning, use --no-warn-script-location
You may want to add this location to PATH
, to do that, add the following line to your .rc
