--- Begin Message ---Package: boot-floppies Version: potato Hi, The bash package in potato includes a nice /etc/skel/.bash_logout file: # ~/.bash_logout: executed by bash(1) when login shell exits. # when leaving the console clear the screen to increase privacy case "`tty`" in /dev/tty[0-9]) clear esac However, after installation, root's account doesn't have this, as it is not created using adduser/useradd, I guess, but made by the installation system. This file should be added to ~root, because root's privacy must be of utmost importance. :) TIA. -- Digital Electronic Being Intended for Assassination and Nullification
