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. -Tino -- [apport] zsh4 crashed with SIGSEGV in rawmemchr() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/85261 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
