Dirk, if you want it to be in user environments system-wide, you can add it into your /etc/profile if this is the redhat system. It won't affect any existing/open terminal shells, until you run 'source' as Cory suggests... in fact, I'm curious about whether a users gets /etc/profile settings at login time, or whenever a shell is launched. Any redhat trainers reading this?
regards, Ben PS - you can put it whereever you want, of course, like ~/.bash_aliases or whatnot, then refer to it appropriately... = ) On 23 Oct 2003 20:47:20 -0700 Dirk Ouellette <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: | I'm trying to alias a command; | java -jar /neurosjar/NeurosDBM.1.16.jar | and put it in; | | # .bash_profile | | # Get the aliases and functions | if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then | . ~/.bashrc | alias poop='java -jar /neurosjar/NeurosDBM.1.16.jar' | fi | | # User specific environment and startup programs | | PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin | | export PATH | unset USERNAME | | It doesn't work so I've put it in the wrong place. where should I put | it. | Thanks, Dirk _______________________________________________ EuG-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
