The explanation lies in when the startup files are executed. ~/.bashrc gets executed by each interactive shell Therefore here belong - functions that, by default, are not exported by/cannot be inherited from the parent process - aliases that are not exported by/cannot be inherited from the parent process - prompt - PS1 shell variable (not an environment variable) - set by bash, can be modified by the user Note, that environment variables are inherited from the parent process and need not be set here. ~/.bash_profile (or ~/.bash_login or ~/.profile) gets executed by login shell/at session start-up Therefore setting environment variables belongs here. Also ~/.bashrc needs to be executed here in case the login shell is interactive.
Just relative to this, with konsole, which is a bash shell apparently, are you saying that when you create a new tab that .bashrc is run in the new tab, but .bash_profile is not and is only run at the initial console startup?
