In order to customize the bash shell where do I place alias, set and export statements?
Thanks in advance.
The SuSE bash initialization files look for a $HOME/.alias file and source it if it exists, that's the best place for personal aliases. The best place for personal shell variables is $HOME/.bashrc since it is sourced for all types of shells (login, interactive, non-interactive). Check out the SuSE unofficial FAQ for all the behind the scenes setup of bash shells in SuSE: http://susefaq.sourceforge.net/ Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Got spam?
