[QUOTE="cradom, post: 1343271, member: 305283"] For the record it's not a good idea to edit anything in /etc. The best way to do this is copy the bashrc file in /etc to your home dir and edit it. Then rename it to .bashrc (notice the dot in front). Editing directly in /etc makes changes for ALL users which may not be a good thing. (not to mention that you don't own the files, system does) [/QUOTE]
