Hi Chris,

So I should change the path in the .bash_profile, right?
Because doing this in the terminal does not work.... Have I understood you
well?

Kind regards,
Rosalia

As I recommended earlier, you should put that variable in the
".bash_profile" file. Your problem likely occurs because ".bashrc" is
loaded before ".bash_profile", and if you then source the Freesurfer
scripts following the instructions on their wiki (placing it in
".bash_profile"), it overwrites the SUBJECTS_DIR variable. So place your
SUBJECTS_DIR specification *after* you source SetUpFreesurfer.sh (or
whatever it's called).

In any case, you can always set this variable yourself in a terminal, or in
some other script. As long as you keep the terminal, the variable persists.
