Then you get the same thing, no matter how you started the shell.
Also, you can edit either file and the other gets the edits, since
they are really both the same file, just with two names.
Interesting.

The shell is what you use to interact with the operating system. By
default in Gentoo you use bash. Common alternatives include sh, ksh,
csh, and many many more...

I am not at my gentoo box right now, but I think they should be in the

.bashrc runs everytime a shell is opened and .bash_profile is run only
when a user logs in.
My question then is why the default .bashrc is empty and the default
.bash_profile has:
