OK, I figured out the aliases stuff on my own and made up a more elegant
solution, in case any one here wanted to try it. And I'm always up for
suggestions:
The script /etc/bashrc _IS_ being executed, but just it, not the ~.bashrc
as far as I can tell. My problem before was a stupid syntax error.
So I have the /etc/bashrc source the ~/.login script, a file I created to
hold any and all login to shell type stuff I want. This file in turn
sources the .alias file in my directory. So now, new adds go into
~/.alias, and any other at-login style directions can be included in
~/.login.
