Thank you for your help, fink now runs at the command prompt in the X11 window :-). I just wanted to clear up some confusion I still have regarding the different shells. So if my G5 now uses the bash shell as the default, is the .profile file the equivalent of the .cshrc file in my tcsh? I ask, because on my other mac I have a load of alias's and a set PATH command. Can I just put these into the .profile file?

Cheers,

Simon.
