command not found error on Mac when running mfp from command line

Question

I am getting mfp: command not found error on Mac. I obviously have installed mobilefirst-cli using npm install -g path-to-cli-.tgz-file

How can I check/verify if mobilefirst-cli is successfully installed on Mac? I tried to run mfp but got the error "Command not found".

where to check it? I installed it from instructions posted here: https://mobilefirstplatform.ibmcloud.com/downloads/ There is no mention of version here — AADProgramming, May 24 '16 at 13:49
This is really stupid but maybe you need to open a new terminal window...this has tripped me up a few times installing other things... — MBillau, May 24 '16 at 13:49
@MBillau Yes, I tried it by opening new Terminal Windows, but no luck. — AADProgramming, May 24 '16 at 13:50

If you are using MobileFirst 8.0 https://mobilefirstplatform.ibmcloud.com/downloads/ then the executable will be mfpdev

yes it was MobileFirst 8.0 and I could run mfpdev executable, but in all docs it is mentioned as mfp. – AADProgramming May 24 '16 at 13:50
@AADTechnical glad it worked, we will get the doc fixed – Yoel Nunez May 24 '16 at 13:58

Specify PATH in zshrc or bashrc. Command: gedit ~/.zshrc Also source it. Command: source ~/.zshrc Once that is done. Restart terminal and you should be able to access mfp commands in cli.
