Shell startup scripts — flowblok’s blog blog.flowblok.id.au
If you’re a regular shell user, you’ve almost certainly got a .bash_profile or .bashrc script in your home folder, which usually contains various tweaks, such as setting environment variables (adding that directory to $PATH), telling your shell to do clever things (like set -o noclobber) and adding various aliases to commands (like alias please=sudo).
I didn't know that this is such a complex system. A wonder that it works.
