 We now need to place the program Quanty into a folder where you can run it easily from within the terminal. To do so we will create the folder "bin" in your home directory and add the bin to your path such that wherever you are your computer can always find Quanty. The first thing to do is to change to directory to your home (cd ~ [enter]). Next you create the folder bin in your home (mkdir bin [enter]). The last thing you do in the terminal is to add the program Quanty to your path (echo -e '\nexport PATH="~/bin:\$PATH"\n' >> .bashrc [enter]). You can test if the file .bashrc is correct by typing (open -t .bashrc [enter]). An other option to see your search path is to type (echo $PATH [enter]).  We now need to place the program Quanty into a folder where you can run it easily from within the terminal.

 +NOTE: macOS Catalina and later uses Zsh as the default shell, not Bash. So if this is the case for you, use .zshrc instead of .bashrc in the given commands.
