Andrew,

       Ok, I didn't use gedit or anything like that. Rather, just used
vi and edited the file. From the man page, I got that the bash reads the
files in this order:

When  bash  is  invoked as an interactive login shell, or as a non-interactive 
shell with the --login option, it first reads and executes commands from the 
file
/etc/profile, if that file exists.  After reading that file, it looks for 
~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads and  
executes
commands from the first one that exists and is readable.  The --noprofile 
option may be used when the shell is started to inhibit this behavior.


So you might need to put the above in $HOME/.bash_profile.
