Description

Currently you have to manually edit files to add fman to PATH as per the docs.

I like the way vscode does this, there is a command "Shell command: Install code command in PATH" to add/remove code to the PATH that you can bring up with Cmd+Shift+P. (Although I think it symlinks to /usr/local/bin instead of adding to PATH). Setup would be a bit smoother if fman had this type of command too.

Research direction

Start with the command-line setup described in the linked documentation and review how fman exposes commands across supported platforms. Compare the requested behavior with VS Code's PATH command; done means users can add or remove fman from PATH through an accessible command without manually editing setup files.
