I am running MacOSX Sierra and have `homebrew` installed. So I'm trying to create `compress-slide.sh` script under `~/bin`. In order for me to get rid of doing symlinks I added the `~/bin` in my path so my path looks like this now: `/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:~/bin`

I've set the path under `/etc/paths` and here is how it looks like:

```
/usr/local/bin
/usr/bin
/bin
/usr/local/sbin
/usr/sbin
/sbin
~/bin

```

But when I try `which compress-slide.sh` nothing is found, it doesn't give me the path I'm expecting which is `~/bin/compress-slide.sh` I just wish to use this script when I'm on different directories. Also I made sure that I'm the owner of the script and that it has executable permission.

```
-rwxr-xr-x  1 dummyuser  dummyuser   135B Dec 28 18:13 compress-slide.sh

```

Here's the content of my script, just a simple command to test it works;

```
#!/usr/bin/env bash

echo 'test'

```

Here is my `homebrew` config:

```

Is this because of `Homebrew` conflicting with my setup? Has anyone encountered this as well?
