export PATH="/home/chris/.local/bin:$PATH"


##Save the file and load the new $PATH into the current shell session using the source command:

source ~/.bashrc

chris@duff:~$ source ~/.bashrc

chris@duff:~/.local/bin$ echo $PATH
/home/chris/.local/bin:/home/chris/bin:/home/chris/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin

run bpytop
chris@duff:~$ bpytop

works :)
