title: Adding a permanent value to $PATH on Raspbian
body: <p>I am quite new to Linux so I'm sorry for my newbie question, 
  but for about and hour now I'm trying to add Node.js to $PATH with no luck :(</p>
  
  <p>I've used the following line to add Node</p>
  
  <pre><code>PATH=$PATH:node-v0.10.24-linux-arm-armv6j-vfp-hard/bin
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>it worked, but when I logged off the terminal and logged in again, the path disappeared.</p>
  
  <p>Later I tried adding the same line to <code>.profile</code> , <code>.logins.defs</code> and <code>.bashrc</code>.
  All didn't work so I removed the line.</p>
  
  <p>Please help me with this!</p>

  <p>P.S , when I added the line to <code>.profile</code> I was able to call Node, but when I changed my directory in order to navigate to a Node project directory, I received the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>-bash: node-v0.10.24-linux-arm-armv6j-vfp-hard/bin/node: No such file or directory
  </code></pre>
