[QUOTE="cradom, post: 689116, member: 305283"] Unless there's a lot of differences between Tiger and Leopard... Bash will read a .bashrc just fine, assuming you've restarted Terminal. There's no need to "force" it to read from preferences. Terminal is very customizable, type "man bash" (without the quotes) in Terminal. Goto [url]http://www.dotfiles.com/[/url] and look at/download some of the OS X files. All kinds of ways to customize prompts and more. My favorite is bash_styles. [/QUOTE]
