Lost Indian Culture - II

I did break some serious beliefs in my first post and this one will drill deeper and clean a few more. The concept here relates to culture and religion. Basically, there are eight religions in the world - four originated in the Gulf and the rest in India. Most religions present in the west originated in the gulf and are called western or Abrahamic religions.                                           The four religions originating in India are called Dharmic paths, as per Wikipedia .

Quick Answer When an installer asks whether it should "Add to PATH," it is asking whether it should tell your operating system where to find that software's executable files. If the software is added to PATH, you can usually run it from any terminal, command prompt, script, or automation tool simply by typing its name. Without PATH, the software may still be installed and functional, but command-line access becomes much less convenient. Why S...
