Remove/edit entry from $env.PATH

[roaldarbol]

I've accidentally written something wrong into $env.PATH. Now I can't figure out how to remove it again, and I can't find the entries in any file (e.g. $nu.env-path). There's nothing about removing entries in the documentation as far as I can tell.

Can anyone help here?

Environment variables are inherited from the shell that nushell is launched from. If nushell is your login shell, then you specify env vars in the $nu.env-path like you have mentioned. Although, I believe any file you source or use can export environment variables so you may have to hunt for it.

Ah, the problem was that I simply called $env.PATH = ($env.PATH | split row (char esep) | append '/some/path') from the shell, I didn't add it to $nu.env-path - so it actually didn't stay, and accordingly, there was nothing to remove. When I added it to $nu.env-path, I could of course simply remove it again.
