In my reading I discovered that ...rc stands for "run commands" Thus .pinerc is the file that contains the "commands to run" when you open pine. .bashrc are the list of commands to run when bash starts, etc. Coming from the DOS/Windows world this is sort of like a autoexec.bat-configuration file combination. What I am having trouble figuring out is the logic as to "where" the various ....rc files are to be found. Many seem to be in various locations outside the home directory. It does not seem right that one should have to "discover" their locations one at a time and then remember where they are for later use I would like to create a folder on my desktop that contains kdelinks (symlinks?) to all the important ones so that they would be easily available to look at and modify without having to hunt for them. To do that, I need a list of where they are and where they can be found or at least the logic linux uses to place them here or there. Could someone help provide this list? At least the important ones that control the functioning of Mandrake 7.1 and the various interfaces such as gnome, kde, etc.?
