title: How to set vim PATH?
body: <p>The server manager told me they updated/built vim to the latest version at <code>/opt/vim/src/vim</code> but when I open <code>$vim</code>, it is still the old version. Then I check:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$which vim 
  /usr/bin/vim
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My question is how to set or change $PATH so that I will initiate the latest vim version?</p>
  
  <p>Here is the OS information:</p>
  
  <pre><code>~$ uname -a
  Linux ccis4301 3.13.0-88-generic #135-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 8 21:10:42 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
