Hi, I personally prefer to make all of these sorts of changes system-wide; If I need to change it, then its a fair bet that someone else who uses my system would need the change as well. I like the elegance of /etc/profile.d/*.sh, so thats where I tend to put all of these sorts of things. (And if other users really want to override my settings, they can use ~/.bashrc) James On Tue, 2002-10-22 at 05:01, Robert P. J.
