Question

Is there any way globally run pex I am trying to create pex binary and want to add bin folder to execute anywhere in my mac What is the option that I can do

If I understand correctly this is not a PEX question at all For any binary at all it needs to be in one of the directories in your `PATH` in order to be globally executable Common means of doing this for normal users is to add either `~ bin` or `~ local bin` to your `PATH` and then copy or symlink binaries in that directory
