Modifying the Kettle home in Unix-like systems

If you want to modify the Kettle home directory permanently, proceed as follows:

1. Edit the startup file (for example, ~/.bashrc)
2. Add the following lines (replacing <kettle_home_value> with the proper value):

KETTLE_HOME=<kettle_home_value>
export KETTLE_HOME

3. Save and close the file.

If you just want to set the value for the current execution, add the same lines to the Spoon.sh file.
