Addendum: If you edit /etc/skel/.bashrc it won't change it for any of your current
users. It will
only affect the users' accounts who are created after you make the changes. To change
it for your
current users you will have to change them one by one. You could do this with a super
simple
script (i'm thinking of one that would use sed).
