That's where I figured it would be. It ain't there. :-) I've searched in the places I would expect to find it and several others that seemed like they'd be worth a shot (/etc/bash.bashrc, /etc/bash_completion, /etc/bash_completion.d, /etc/profile.d and of course, /etc/profile). Scored a big zero for my efforts. Is there somewhere else that it's likely to be hiding? --Dave
