(This file is also user-specific, like ``.bash_profile''!) I understand the distinction between .bash_profile and .bashrc , but I just don't see what one would ever put in .bashrc (apart from the call to /etc/bashrc which I am sure does something sensible). Can you give me a concrete example of something extra in your ,bashrc ?
