There are 4 blank lines in my .bash_profile: ====== start file echo 'BEGIN ~/.bash_profile'
export ANT_HOME='/cygdrive/c/Java/apache-ant-1.6.5' export JAVA_HOME='/cygdrive/c/Java/jdk1.5.0_08' export CLASSPATH='' export EDITOR='vim' export PATH="${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${ANT_HOME}/bin:${PATH}" # export PS1='$ ' # echo 'setting up aliases...' # alias ls='ls -F --color' # alias ll='ls -Fl --color' # alias la='ls -Fla --color' # alias lr='ls -Flr --color' # alias lar='ls -Flar --color' # alias desktop='cd /cygdrive/c/Documents\ and\ Settings/psalzman/Desktop' echo 'END ~/.bash_profile' ====== end file Each blank line generates an error: $ source .bash_profile BEGIN ~/.bash_profile : command not found : command not found : command not found : command not found END ~/.bash_profile However, if I comment all the blank lines out, I get no errors. Each blank line in this file seems to be causing a "command not found" error. What could be causing this?
