Every time I open Terminal, I get this:

"bash- {PATH}:tools: command not found"

And it seems any time I try to do anything in Terminal, it NEVER works. Can anyone offer any advice as to what I can do?

Thank you!

Do you have a .bashrc or .bash_profile? If so, check to make sure that nothing is being executed when bash is opened. You might also want to check Terminal > Preferences > Settings > Shell > Startup.

Second, when you say that nothing works, can you be a little more specific? How does it not work?
