Thinking about it the other option which I think would be clearer for
people learning would be to suggest that people add ~/ros_tutorials to
their ROS_PACKAGE_PATH.
Like so:
Assuming your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH is ~/ros/stacks:
export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=~/ros/stacks:~/ros_tutorials
As to the editing you need to manually follow the "<<Include" macro's
argument and edit that wiki page.
