This one's driving me nuts.
there are 4 files sourced when I log in...
/etc/profile
~/.profile
~/.bash_profile
one other, I can't remember. Mabye /etc/bashrc or /etc/bash_profile
Anyway, the first to be executed is /etc/profile.
However, if I put "echo $PATH" at the beginning of this file,
there is already a PATH in place which looks something like:
/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
The rest of my scrips just append to this list.
So my question is:
Where is my PATH originally being set? /etc/profile
is supposed to be th first script executed for a login
session. However there is already a $PATH in place by
the time I get there!
