How to change default list "path" initially?

[Byeongsu Yu]

My computer is MacBook 2012, with OS 10.15.7 and I use Macaulay2 1.19.1. How can I set the variable path in Macaulay2 initially, without any command after starting?

The problem is here; my default list path is set to

o2 = {./, /Users/byeongsuyu/Library/Application Support/Macaulay2/code/,

     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     /Users/byeongsuyu/Library/Application

     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Support/Macaulay2/local/share/Macaulay2/, ../share/Macaulay2/}

However, the second and third elements are useless and prevent me from loading 4ti2 initially. Thus, I always type 

i1: path=drop(path,{1,2})

o1 = {./, ../share/Macaulay2/}

and load 4ti2 after that.

Is there a way to fix the default path list from o3 (in the first) to the o1?

Best,

I don't see how the second and third elements could prevent you from loading something, unless you have an older version

of the Macaulay2 package resident in one of those directories.   If that's the case, you could remove it with "uninstallPackage"

or "uninstallAllPackages".  That way you can keep those useful entries in the path.

It's also possible that you need to remove the file "/Users/byeongsuyu/Library/Application Support/Macaulay2/init-FourTiTwo.m2", which is unfortunately not cleaned out by uninstallPackage.
