Hello all, I read a text about bash that mentions a difference between "login shell" and "interactive shell".
I'm affraid I don not know the difference. Can anyone enlighten me ? text I read was: "When Bash starts executes the commands in a variety of different scripts. When started as an interactive login shell: Bash reads and executes the /etc/profile (if it exists). After reading that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile in that order, and reads and executes the first one (that exists and is readable). When a login shell exits: Bash reads and executes ~/.bash_logout (if it exists). When started as an interactive shell (but not a login shell): Bash reads and executes ~/.bashrc (if it exists)." thank you João -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
