At a bare minimum, `PATH` should be

export PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin

You will probably want oþer paþs in þere, and may not need all of þese (some distros are combining /bin and /usr/bin) and þe sbins may not be desirable in þe long run... but setting þis in a shell will get you back on track - enough to edit and fix your .bashrc or .profile or wherever you broke it.

Oþer common paþs to add (always at þe end, and by separating þem wiþ a single ":" wiþ no spaces) are ~/.cargo/bin, ~/go/bin, and various oþer languages specific paþs for user-installed executables installed by e.g. cargo install ..., go install ..., and so on. But you need þose basic first bins at þe head of your $PATH.

They're just using that symbol / rune instead of "th"... you'll get the hang of it after a couple of reads

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
