Note, rebooting is not necessary at all. That's one of the
advantages of *NIX OSes over the effluence from Redmond. The
command you need to make the change for the current session is
simply the one you used above. Type it at the prompt, and the
change is made. You'll probably want to 'export PATH' after that,
or, if you have bash, just 'export PATH=...'i in one command. No
further effort required.
