this .bash_profile is the same on five machines, and the others don't have the doubled slashes or the . problem. the problem box did not have bash-completion in the RPM list, so I just added bash-completion-20030821-3mdk.noarch.rpm and checked that bash is at 2.05b-14mdk on several boxes. The double-slashes are now gone, but it still includes . in the path. -- Jack at Monkeynoodle Dot Org: It's A Scientific Venture...
